How we check a rule

Every trail page quotes the trail manager's own published rule — a state agency, park district or trail authority — and links to it. We don't use bike-brand blogs or forums as a source.

If the manager hasn't published an e-bike rule, we say so and give you their number instead of guessing. Each page shows the date we last checked it.

Spot something wrong? Rules change — the posted sign at the trailhead always wins.
