JEFFERSON COUNTY, Colo. — The growing popularity of e-bikes has created controversy on Colorado’s trail systems in terms of where they should and shouldn’t be allowed. And there is no shortage of opinions among trail users.
E-bikes have given many the freedom to ride again, including Kris Nordberg, who had all but given up on riding bikes until she found e-biking. “We do kind of set an example for many agencies in the state. So we try to get ahead and make these classifications and make rules for those classifications at our properties,” Livingston said.“At our state wildlife areas, you are allowed to use Class 1, 2 and 3, but only on designated roads that allow motorized access. So not allowed to be on any trails,” Livingston said.
Wuzzardo said Swedish Medical Center treats e-bike injuries the same as any other motor vehicle accident. Doctors suggest users ride them defensively.
