E-Bike Safety Workshop - May 15 from 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
E-bikes are here to stay, and with the right preparation, riding them can be safe and rewarding. The fact that they tend to be faster, offer powerful acceleration, and be heavier than standard bikes means that they require some additional know-how to operate safely. Learn about getting the most out of your e-bike, sponsored by community organizations Go Santa Cruz and Modo.
This workshop is offered both as an in-person lunch-and-learn at the Civic and virtually via Zoom. Register for the e-bike safety workshop.
