I had the pleasure of exploring Mont Royal, Montréal’s mountain, on an electric scooter. It was my first scooter ride and I was quite nervous. I think riding in a pack of seven ladies helped calm my nerves and after a few blocks, it felt natural.
Dyad’s electric scooters are legally classified as power-assisted bicycles, at least in Canada. I’m trying to find out the rules here in the United States because I’d really like to save up for one!
It was so much fun. It made getting up Mont Royal much easier than it would have been on foot and that left more time for exploring the city.

Rentals are available by the hour, day, week, or month and prices depend on how many miles you expect to go.
When we were traversing Montréal’s La Plateau and Mont Royal neighborhoods, I felt safest on Rue Rachel (!) because it has a long trail of bikes lanes, many of them protected.

When I return to this beautiful city, riding a Dyad E500 is one of the activities I can’t wait to try again!
