  • E-Bike Summary of Community Comment
    E-BIKE SUMMARY OF COMMUNITY COMMENT E-BIKE USE ON THE RECPATH 2018 FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT: SUMMITCOUNTYCO.GOV/EBIKES Background A new Colorado law took effect Aug. 9, 2017, authorizing the operation of Class I and II e-bikes on bike or pedestrian paths where bicycles are authorized to travel. However, the bill also stipulates that local authorities can regulate e-bikes in their jurisdictions. Purpose of Public Comment Since the change in Colorado law, the Summit County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) has received numerous comments both for and against allowing e-bikes on the Recpath. The BOCC has tasked the Open Space and Trails Department with gathering more feedback from the public about e-bikes to determine whether this use might be appropriate on all, or portions, of the Recpath system. Note Only e-bikes on paved pathways are under consideration – not natural surface trails No e-bike use will be considered this year for dirt routes overseen by open space. This policy is consistent with the U.S. Forest Service's stance, which considers e-bikes a motorized vehicle. E-bikes are allowed on forest and county routes open to motorized uses. Goal of Public Comment Summit County and the towns of Breckenridge, Dillon, Frisco, and Silverthorne maintain and manage their respective sections of Recpath. Each jurisdiction is considering its own rules and regulations related to e-bikes, but we are working toward a shared vision for the Recpath system that preserves a seamless experience for Summit County residents and visitors.

  • BICYCLE SAFETY Road Accidents Are the Killer of Thousands of People Per Year
    BICYCLE SAFETY Road accidents are the killer of thousands of people per year. But, there are simple safety precautions that you can take to minimize accidents. Most accidents occur when vehicles pull out of driveways and side streets, or because a person has poor control of the bike resulting in a collision with another object. Make sure that you know the road rules related to cycling. Important riding skills can be practiced away from the road or in other places especially made for bikes. A person should remain in control of the bicycle at all times and be able to come to a controlled stop at any given point. At night, ensure that you are wearing bright colors when riding. Make sure your bike has refl ectors and that the front/rear brakes are working. Wear a headlamp and bell. Check the height of the seat and handlebars. BICYCLE RIDING ON USAFA Th e use of a helmet is mandatory on USAFA. RENTAL & SHOP FEES Bicyclists must ride with the fl ow of traffi c.
