It's a steel frame, mountain bike style, hybrid, with the rider seated in an upright position and should attract older, and less athletically inclined peddlers. They look exactly like a bicycle and one has to look pretty close to notice the electric motor, and battery. So, what's the official, un-official status for riding electric bicycles like this on the WOW Trail? Anybody know?

fatlazyless.... Honestly. How many times do you see yourself using this bike path? You are already pondering electric bikes to shuttle your fatlazyless a** back and forth to Lobster Pound. You just like to hear yourself!!! Are you an Ex committee member of someone thrown off of a board. You love to stir the pot.
The state doesn't benefit from these paths. The town doesn't benefit from the path. It is a headache waiting to happen. There is already graffiti on some of the walls they installed and the fences are already broken in some spots.
Waste of Money...
