Gear up, Omskites, the city's getting a new kickscooter rental service!
Well, that's the buzz on the streets, anyway. Word is, this Badass Bumblebee Barrage of electric scooters is set to debut in Omsk on April 1, 2025. Yes, you read that right—April Fool's Day! Lucky us!
The service will be provided by the tech giant "MTS Yuurent," with over 1,500 sleek, royal-purple rides hitting the streets of the city. And hey, watch out for fines! Catching a ride on the pedestrian crossing will cost you a pretty penny at 1,000 rubles. Sharing a scooter? That'll set you back 5,000 rubles. Tempted to pass the reins to your kid? 10,000 rubles, mate. And good luck if you're caught cruising while three sheets to the wind—100,000 rubles is just the start. Beat account-lockdowns? Wish us luck!
Lo and behold, the 2025 scooter season kicked off last weekend, starting March 29, with plans for company "VUSH" to deploy over 2,000 yellow rides on electric treads and establish around 900 dedicated parking spots.
For the record, you might recognize kickscooters as they first rolled into Omsk's scene back in 2012.
