Letter to the Editor:
I’ve read your articles about e-Bike concerns and wanted to share my perspective. As an outdoor enthusiast in my 60s, I’ve transitioned to using an e-Bike with my husband on various local trails. I agree that education is important, but it shouldn’t be limited to e-Bike users.
Non-powered cyclists often speed and pose hazards, and pedestrians sometimes block trails, creating dangerous situations.
During a recent visit to Vancouver, BC, we saw a multi-use trail around Stanley Park with designated lanes for pedestrians and bicycles—this could work here, along with an education campaign or alternating activity days.
Ultimately, we should encourage all forms of outdoor activity and find ways to support each other.
