Own your ride.

Have fun getting there.

MyCityRides Has a Mission…

MyCityRides makes reliable transportation affordable and ownership possible for those in the workforce with limited means but unlimited potential, increasing opportunities for everyone.

MyCityRides is a 501(c)3 offering a Flyer Program which provides affordable motorized scooters for people to get to work – and anywhere else life takes them.

Here’s How it Works

Our program lets you own a brand new, motorized scooter through low monthly payments. You own your scooter at the end of the contract.

-Apply for the program!

Check out our Application Page for more information and requirements!

-Learn and Train

Attend Scooter School, for a small fee, where you’ll get hands-on training, get familiar with a scooter, and prepare for the licensing test.

-Pass The Test!

Take the licensing test with confidence! Once you pass, you’re ready for the final step.

-Pick Up Your Ride

Pick up your new scooter, get your temporary tag, and set up your monthly payments. Then, hit the road and enjoy the ride! 

-Reap the Benefits!

Take advantage of complimentary routine maintenance, free gloves, armored jacket, and a choice from our selection of stylish and functional LS2 Helmets! Beyond that, take part in our group rides, or go to our Testimonials page to hear life changing stories of success, directly from Flyers like you, or leave your own success story to share with others!

Check Out Our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I buy a scooter without going through the Flyer Program?

Answer: YES. Come by our showroom M-F 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. (Saturday by appt.)

How much does a scooter cost?

Answer: A new scooter costs between $5,384-$6,575. Occasionally, used scooters are available at a discounted price depending on the condition.

What is a Flyer?

Answer: A Flyer is someone who is committed to their work and has joined our scooting community because it is an economical and fun mode of transportation. The program lasts for 3 years and includes Scooter School, helmet, padded jacket and gloves, DMV testing assistance and vehicle registration, GPS, liability insurance, oil changes, new tires, brakes, and tune-ups. Once a Flyer graduates, the vehicle title is transferred to them and they begin to pay for their own maintenance and insurance.

Can I be a Flyer if my job is delivering food or supplies?

Answer: Delivery jobs do not allow the individual Flyer to qualify for liability insurance.

Does MyCityRides (MCR) provide Comprehensive insurance?

Answer: MCR provides state-required liability insurance for each of the 3 years the Flyer is enrolled in the program. Once a Flyer graduates, they must provide it themselves. Comprehensive insurance is more expensive and variable for each individual. MCR highly
recommends that each Flyer purchase the extra comprehensive insurance through their personal agent.

Am I eligible even if I don't have a Class M Endorsement?

Yes! My City Rides provides everything you need to get on the road in our Flyer Program, including the Class M Endorsement legally required to operate our scooters. So long as your license is not suspended or otherwise legally impacted, your eligibility wont be affected by a lack of endorsement.

Does MyCityRides host Events?

Yes! We host monthly appreciation gatherings for our sponsors, donors and Flyers, as well as twice-monthly Group Rides during the warmer months. Our Group Rides are also open to the public, so anyone on two wheels is welcome! Those who are interested in Group Rides that arent already apart of our program can sign up here.

We believe that working people should have access to transportation that’s reliable, affordable, and gives them the freedom to get where they need to go.

Brandon Bland

MyCityRides is a great way to simplify my life. I now have the freedom to direct some of those finances that used to go to gas, car payment and insurance to other day-to-day expenses. By far the biggest advantage to scooting is peace of mind. Knowing that I am in a better financial place now is a big relief. MyCityRides gets you directly into a friendly, knowledgeable, and fun community that is there to get you where you need to go!

Khalil Castal

Scooting grants me freedom with the self-efficacy of having stable, cost-effective transportation. I now have a greater chance to explore all avenues that will help me as a graduating senior. I owe it all to MyCityRides’ mission to make Memphians scoot.

Fran Anthony

I joined because I was intrigued and excited by the promotion MyCityRides did at my job. Even though I live a little farther from work than I would like, I knew it would be nice to have a scooter at home too for short errands, and just to joy ride. Scooting gets me out of the house enjoying the fresh air. I’m actually becoming somewhat of an outdoor girl!”

Help your employees get to work.

It’s tough to find great employees. And, it’s hard to keep them if they’re unable to get to work consistently due to limited public transit, long commutes or lack of transportation. When you partner with MyCityRides, your employees can own affordable, reliable motorized scooters through payroll deductions.
