The issue

Imagine being a kid who finally found the perfect way to escape the screen — enjoying the thrill of fresh air and exercise on an e-bike. For many, e-bikes have offered an incredible outlet for energy and creativity, bringing endless joy and freedom from being cooped up indoors. However, due to the irresponsible actions of a few, this awesome outdoor activity is on the brink of being taken away from everyone, particularly affecting kids.

The current ban on e-bikes penalizes heaps of responsible young riders who simply want to have fun. They shouldn't have to miss out because of others' mistakes. Instead of a blanket ban, a sensible solution would be establishing an e-bike license specifically for kids aged 12 and older. With this license in hand, they would need to follow new specially designed e-bike signage, maintaining safety and respect on the streets. This isn't just about legality, it's about providing kids with a lifelong appreciation for cycling and the outdoors.

By implementing these measures, we can create a future where e-biking is a safe, regulated, and accessible sport for everyone. This change is crucial not just for the kids who ride, but for families searching for a healthy and safe alternative to digital activities.

Join me in urging local authorities to reconsider the current regulations. Let's make e-bikes legal again and ensure this positive and healthy activity isn't lost. Sign this petition to support licensing and designated signage for e-bikes, and help bring back joy and adventure to our children's lives. Your signature can make a difference!
