Thanks @ryanmjohnson, the @culdesac vision of cities built for people not cars is the perfect compliment to Lyft's mission, even if it's not perfectly obvious yet :) 👊.
Congrats to @johnzimmer on wrapping up this chapter at Lyft. You are a pioneer of ridesharing, and Lyft has enabled so many to move away from private car ownership, myself included. Culdesac wouldn't be possible without your work, and it is so great to have you as a board member

@logangreen @lyft To Logan, none of this would be possible without your strong and steady leadership, and your beautiful mind for innovation. The relationship we’ve built together over the last 16 years is very rare, and I don’t take it for granted. The trust, the support and the pushes were.

15 years ago, I carpooled across America so @logangreen and I could build @lyft together. We started with a crazy idea that we would put pink mustaches on regular people’s cars and create a community movement. And it worked! Billions of rides and meaningful connections later,.

Before our bikes hit the streets, they’re frozen, boiled, banged up, and pushed to their limits in @Lyft’s Mobility Lab. We build them tough to hold up for years and get millions of riders where they need to go.
Smash it. Freeze it. Spin it. Twist it. Burn It. Here are all the things Lyft does to its bikeshare bikes to ensure they're ready to hit the streets:

I love seeing the @Culdesac community coming to life in Tempe. If this is what cities built around people instead of cars looks like, I’m fully on board. (Full disclosure: I am literally on the board.).

New @lyft bike and scooter docks are rolling out! They’re tough, timeless, and modular. We replaced LEDs displays with more durable and energy-efficient analog flip-dots. Also working to add charging, which means more charged ebikes, fewer battery swaps, and reduced emissions.
You might not think much about docking stations, but that’s about to change. Meet Pillar, Lyft's new bike and scooter dock coming to a street near you. Here’s a sneak peek at how Lyft is giving this humble piece of infrastructure a technological makeover:

We’ve been on the road in Las Vegas with @motionaldrive's autonomous, all-electric vehicles for six months!.
It's been six months since we launched our new service in Las Vegas using our all-electric IONIQ 5 AVs! We love getting to introduce passengers to their first autonomous ride. Check out these reactions from some of our @lyft riders.

We’ve loved scaling up LyftNav, built specifically for Lyft drivers — with efficient routes, precise positioning, and fewer distractions – so drivers can maximize their earnings. It also makes the network more convenient for riders.

Small but mighty product update: @Lyft Business customers can now track their emissions with a sustainability dashboard. Pumped to help other businesses lean into sustainable transportation and reduce their carbon footprint! 💪🌎

Fred Ones is a Chicago legend. Love seeing him on Lyft’s Divvy bikes 🚴 showing @RevByLyft around his adopted hometown.
In the 1990’s Fred Ones was one of the most prolific graffiti artists in Chicago. Join him on an electric bike-share tour of the city’s eclectic neighborhoods and underground street art:
