The entire Dallas Cowboys team all just got the same electric motorcycles

There’s riding in style, and then there’s over 80 Dallas Cowboys all cruising around on the same electric motorcycles. Thanks to a generous gift from team quarterback Dak Prescott, that’s exactly what the football team will be doing on over 80 new CAKE Makka electric mopeds.

The CAKE Makka, first released back in 2021, combines Swedish styling with modern electric motorbike tech. In an event that is certainly a first of its kind, a fleet of 80 new Makkas was just seen lined up in the Cowboys’ end zone awaiting their new riders. Once the gifts were revealed, the excited players could be seen on video crisscrossing around the field on the lightweight e-mopeds.

A bit out of its element on a football field, the Makka e-moped offers city riding performance with a 3.6 kW motor and a top speed of 28 mph (45 km/h). That allows it to qualify as a “moped class vehicle” in many states and thus not require a motorcycle license to operate, though laws vary.

A single 1.5 kWh battery powers the 132 lb (60 kg) bike, offering a claimed maximum range per charge of 31 miles (50 km).

Working with EMOTO Supply Co., a Tampa-based electric moblity vendor, Dak Prescott had each of the electric mopeds customized for his teammates.

According to a statement from EMOTO Supply Co., they included “each player’s jersey number and paired the gift with limited-edition EMOTO Supply Co. hats in the Cowboys’ colors, adding a personal and unforgettable touch to every detail.”

After the Swedish electric motorcycle company filed for bankruptcy last year, EMOTO Supply Co. aquired CAKE’s remaining US inventory and became the brand’s North American service partner.

“Dak’s leadership and thoughtfulness are truly inspiring,” said Michael Joyce, founder and managing partner of EMOTO Supply Co. “I get to see reactions of people’s first times on electric bikes daily, but seeing the players’ reactions when they stepped on the CAKE bikes, it was truly priceless. We are fortunate to have had the opportunity to curate this end-of-season gift for the Dak.”
