BIKE HERO WINNERS 2026 –
There were 86 nominations and 19 schools represented in this year’s Bike Hero contest. Teachers, parents, neighbors, and fellow students sent in testimonials of children leading their peers, climbing big hills, battling the weather – all while obeying the rules of the road on bike. We congratulate all the students nominated and hope they continue to inspire their peers! Four students were selected to receive a $50 gift card to a store of their choice.

IMPORTANT E-BIKE LAWS VETTED BY INDUSTRY LAWYERS
Any throttle motor that can be switched to go speeds beyond 20 mph on motor power alone, is considered “out of class” – it is not an e-bike, it is a motor vehicle and requires a student to be at least 16 years old with a driver’s license and registration. (Same as e-scooters)
Under the guidance of our insurers and legal counsel, there are many brands (e.g. Super73, Surron) that fall into the “out-of-class” category that can no longer be accepted in classes.

A bill pending in CA legislature would address “multiple mode” products, not leaving it up to the consumers to interpret. Other bills are pending to address a minimum age requirement of 16 for Class 2.
