Hello Summit Bikers,
State Law now allow counties to determine the use of e-bikes on recpaths. Summit County is in the process of deciding what they should do (hopefully across jurisdictions). Until March 19 you can take a survey to provide your comments. The web site to read more about E-bikes and take the survey is summitcountyco.gov/ebikes. Summit Biking encourages all of our members to provide their comments on this issue. The process of deciding what to do and then having it adopted by the County as well as the various towns will be lengthy, so do not expect any quick changes.
Current law allows anyone who considers themselves disable to use e-bikes. You do not have to have a doctors evaluation to be in compliance. This is unlikely to change.
Spring is close, get those bikes ready!
