Of the many opportunities that e-bikes have created for people, one of the most exciting is how adaptive e-bikes and e-cycles have enabled riders with special needs to explore places that were once out of reach. A trail system in Vermont, called the Driving Range, recently opened and its trails were built to accommodate adaptive e-bikes.
Most singletrack trails are too narrow for adaptive e-bikes, so even in places where Class 1 eMTBs are allowed, adaptive cycles with three or four wheels are too wide to fit on the trail. The trails at the Driving Range, however, are wide enough for adaptive e-bikes that have wheels in parallel.
