Commute Options recently hosted our first in-person e-bike safety class! The class took place at Bend Electric Bikes, one of local bike shops participating in this year’s E-Bike Rebate Program.
This free session focused on topics for Oregon riders, including e-bike laws, infrastructure, and best safety practices. As e-bikes continue to grow in popularity as a sustainable and efficient mode of transportation, it’s more important than ever to help riders understand how to navigate safely and confidently on our streets.
Education is the tool we are applying to reduce crashes between people driving and people riding, while also promoting the use of micro-mobility options throughout the community.
We were excited by the community interest and look forward to continuing our e-bike safety programming across Oregon. Stay tuned for more classes, resources, and events coming soon! Below is a link that will direct you to the free online e-bike safety course.
