I had seen that while in Portland.
Maybe funny, but not cool from a pollution perspective.

I heard they found more then they thought would, but I never knew it was so high as 57! A lot of people in town hate the scooters because of the riders actions, but 57, WOW!

if i read the article correctly, there's more out there still, they had to stop at 57 because they ran out of room.
i know a guy who throws those scooters in the river when he comes across them laying around. he's one of those crust punk kids and a portland original and hates anything techy or cash-grabby and is real bitter about the direction portland's going. he's not doing it to be funny or original, but as a passive aggressive way to protest, i guess. i don't agree with it, but whatever

I don't like them because most people that are on them have little regard for public safety, however that's no reason to throw them in the river. I am surprised no one sees this and reports it.

You guys just don't get enough SNOW. The busses haven't played street hockey in a few years.
