There are a lot of frequent questions regarding e-bikes. This informational flyer should clear up much of the confusion. While we love kids being outside, enjoying the weather, and being active; we don't want to respond to an avoidable tragedy.

Please help keep your children safe and informed. Share this so others can be aware.

Stay safe and have a great summer. 🌞
