Our bike-share partners Lime, Beam, Neuron, and Hello Bike have generously offered 50% off all their bikes as a special promotion for the Better Streets Weekend. Simply download the app, click the prompt that states that you support Better Streets, and you're good to go! Each provider will drop off around a dozen bikes at our start point in Herald Square so there will be plenty of bikes to go around.
