Before you start pedaling an e-bike, familiarize yourself with all the local rules. You can find these on city, county and federal land management websites, depending on where you plan to ride. (Provided by Craniologie Breckenridge)
Erik Skarvan was teaching two women how to mountain bike between Aspen and Snowmass last summer when, seemingly out of nowhere, three men zoomed past on e-bikes, forcing Skarvan and the women to scramble off the trail.
Not only were the men breaking the law e-bikes, or bicycles propelled by pedaling and battery-powered motors, aren’t allowed on Pitkin County singletrack trails but the men also nearly ran into Skarvan and his clients at top speed.
