Guide to Electric Biking in the National Parks & National Monuments [VIDEOS]

The memorandum states ‘E-bikes are allowed where traditional bicycles are allowed.  E-bikes are not allowed where traditional bicycles are prohibited, including wilderness areas…… The intent of this policy is to allow e-bikes to be used for transportation and recreation in a similar manner to traditional bicycles.’
