Electric motorcycles, or “e-motos,” are becoming more common in Golden. E-motos (think “pegs instead of pedals”) are illegal to operate on sidewalks, trails, parks, open space or roadways.

As summer gets underway, we want to avoid an increase in unsafe riding and prevent serious injuries before they happen.

Let’s make this a summer to remember for all the right reasons.

Parents and guardians need to understand the type of vehicle their child may be operating, where it may legally be used, and expectations for safe and respectful riding.
