Hey Auburn, let’s talk about e-bikes—specifically, the ones your kids are zipping around on like they just unlocked a turbo boost in Mario Kart. We know kids love ‘em, parents love the break from carpool duty, and let’s be honest—some of these things have more torque than our first cars!!!
Class 1 & 2? Good to go! Pedal assist and throttle-friendly—just keep it responsible.
Class 3? Only for 16+ riders with helmets—so no, little Timmy should not be going 28mph down Lincoln Way like he’s late for the Tour de Auburn.
Modified or offroad only E-bikes that break the speed limit? That’s not an E-Bike, that’s a problem. Congrats, you now own an unregistered motorcycle. And no, your 12-year-old should not be riding it to school.
Parents, we get it—e-bikes are fun. But just like cars, they come with responsibilities. So, let’s keep our young riders safe, smart, and speed limit-friendly. Check out the flyer for all the details before your kid hits the road like a caffeinated Mario Kart racer.
