Adjournment Meeting adjourned at _______ IMBA Trail Town: Here's the info: https://www.imba.com/trail-towns Application Period: November 15 - January 15 Application Fee: $500 Additional Fees: $250 every 3 years Your Path to the IMBA Trail Town Designation If your community has made an investment in its trails and fosters a culture around them, you may be ready to pursue the IMBA Trail Town designation. This designation acknowledges the hard work of your community and serves as a badge of honor highlighting your community as a great place to live, work and play. Communities that achieve the IMBA Trail Town designation demonstrate a commitment to: Trail Infrastructure: A trail network, including a minimum of 25 miles of natural surface trails within a 30-mile radius of the town center. This network provides a variety of experiences for all skill levels. Trail Funding: A reliable and sustainable funding model for its community trails. Local Organization: The presence of an active local trail organization that serves as a trail champion in the community, advocating for the growth and stewardship of the trail network. Community Engagement: A culture of community engagement, demonstrated through organized events, programs, and outreach efforts that bring people together and foster a shared commitment to the local trail network. Trail Stewardship: A commitment to regular trail stewardship is demonstrated through a consistent plan for maintenance, ensuring the trail network remains safe, sustainable, and enjoyable for all. Utah HB0381 is a big clarification + crackdown law-it doesn't ban normal e-bikes, but it redefines what counts as one and adds new rules, especially around speed, safety, and high-powered bikes. Here's what actually changes for e-bikes 1) Clear line: what IS vs is NOT an e-bike HB0381 tightens the definition of a legal e-bike: Still a legal e-bike if: Has pedals 750W motor Motor alone can't push past 20 mph (Avid Cyclist) NOT an e-bike anymore if: Can exceed 20 mph without pedaling Too powerful or throttle-heavy Those get reclassified as: 'high-power electric devices' or electric motorcycles (Bike Legal Firm) 2) Some 'e-bikes' now treated like motorcycles This is one of the biggest impacts: High-speed / throttle bikes may now require: registration insurance motorcycle license/endorsement (KPCW) In plain terms: Some popular 'e-moto' style bikes are no longer street-legal as bikes. 3) Modding your bike is now illegal You cannot modify your e-bike to exceed legal limits Fines: ~$100 first offense ~$250 repeat (Avid Cyclist) This directly targets: speed unlocks controller hacks 'off-road mode' used on streets 4) New safety course requirement Under 18 must complete a safety course Adults without a driver's license also need it (Avid Cyclist) Think of it like a basic online certification for riding legally. 5) Helmet rule expanded Riders under 21 must wear helmets on public roads (Bike Legal Firm) 6) More enforcement (especially for minors) Police can: impound e-bikes ridden illegally by minors release them only to parents (Avid Cyclist) 7) Sellers must be honest now Shops must clearly say if a bike: is NOT a legal e-bike may require licensing/registration (Bike Legal Firm) This targets misleading marketing of 'e-bikes' that are basically electric dirt bikes. 8) Alcohol rules apply No drinking or open containers while riding (expanded to all e-bikes) (Avid Cyclist) What this means in real life You're mostly fine if: You have a normal Class 1/2/3 e-bike It follows speed + power limits You didn't modify it You could have issues if: Your bike has a throttle that goes >20 mph It's marketed like a Sur-Ron / e-moto You unlocked higher speeds A teen is riding without a safety cert The big takeaway HB0381 is really about closing the 'fake e-bike' loophole. It separates: true e-bikes (still treated like bicycles) vs high-powered electric vehicles (treated like motorcycles)
