LIME SERVICE IN PARIS AND SURROUNDING AREAS DURING THE GAMES
Lime has a fleet of shared e-bikes throughout the Paris region.
During the Games, bikes will also be available in Saint-Denis, with a giant parking area near the Stade de France and the Aquatic Center.
From Paris, riders can also park near Paris La Défense Arena in Nanterre, as well as Stade Yves-du-Manoir in Colombes.
Finally, Lime bikes will be available in Versailles from July 27th through August 11th. Two giant parking areas will be set up to allow visitors to travel from the station to the Château de Versailles park where the events will take place. A total of 400 bikes will be deployed there, divided between the station parking area and the Château parking area. However, riders will not be allowed to park elsewhere in the city.

LIME AND STÉPHANE ASHPOOL: A UNIQUE COLLECTION OF BIKES THIS SUMMER
Lime and artistic director Stéphane Ashpool collaborate to design a unique bike.
As the City of Light prepares to welcome 16 million visitors, mobility and transport represent a major challenge and a key factor for the success of this Olympic edition.
To mark the occasion, Lime and Stéphane Ashpool have designed a collector bike. Ashpool, known for his work with Le Coq Sportif for the French Olympic team uniforms, brings his expertise and avant-garde vision to the Lime self-service bike.
Edited in 115 copies, these unique Lime bikes will be visible and recognizable in the Lime app.
In partnership with Ashpool, Lime positions itself as a key player in urban mobility and an optimistic brand embodying the Parisian spirit and enthusiasm for micromobility.
