Detroit is partnering with Lyft to help would-be cyclists get to and from its public bikeshare system, MoGo, reports Dana Afana. A Lyft spokesperson said the partnership furthers the company's ambition to serve as "a first-mile and last-mile solution to bikeshare."

The six-month pilot will offer discounted Lyft rides for users picked up or dropped off at a Mogo station.

MoGo launched in May 2017; it now has 43 stations around the city, and recently added adaptive bikes to its fleet for riders with disabilities.
