E-Mobility Statement

The Mid-Michigan Mountain Biking Association (MMMBA) understands that the popularity of e-bikes and single wheeled personal electric vehicles (One Wheels & Electric Unicycles) will continue to grow as will their use on motorized and non-motorized trails. 

Our mission is to support trail users and we will continue to work with land owners/managers to ensure trails are accessible with land owner/manager direction. We will also continue to work with other stakeholders – users, sellers of Class 1 e-bikes and single wheeled personal electric vehicles – to keep local trails open and accommodating for all users. Education about trail etiquette for all trail users will continue to be an essential component to successful management and ensuring trail safety. 

We support the use of Class 1 e-bikes and single wheeled personal electric vehicles on trails designated for ‘non-motorized’ access, when conducted through a public process with stakeholder engagement. The use of these vehicles has been recognized as beneficial to trail systems as their accepted use continues to grow.
