Oakland Rideout: Lime And Marshawn Lynch Team Up For A Great Cause

Community is everything.Growing up cycling the streets of his native Oakland with neighborhood friends, NFL superstar Marshawn Lynch knows this as well as anyone anyone.“We’d bike everywhere growing up,” he told Lime back in November when we first announced the release of our Beast Mode®-branded LimeBikes.

That’s why we were so excited to pair up with Marshawn, Beast Mode and fellow sponsor SE Bikes this past Sunday to put on the 2nd annual Oakland Rideout.Packed with BMX bikes, LimeBikes, Lime-S electric scooters and thousands of local residents stopping out to take part in the action, the group ride was another great example of what makes “The Town” such a uniquely vibrant community.Just check out some of the great energy that was on display.

Riders took off from Beast Mode’s Oakland store at 12 noon, and were joined by some other notable faces including undefeated former light heavyweight boxing champion Andre Ward.

Yeah. Oakland knows how to throw a Rideout.oakland-rideout-lime-marshawn-lynch-4We’d like to thank Marshawn, Beast Mode, SE Bikes and most importantly the citizens of Oakland for giving us the opportunity to be a part of this incredible event.
