🚲 Let's dust off some e-bike knowledge!

Did you know?
🎧 You cannot wear headphones or earbuds while you ride an e-bike (or a regular bike, for that matter!)
🚴 Anyone under 18 is required to wear a helmet while riding
..and...

As outlined in Murrieta Municipal Code Section 10.55.070, operating a bicycle or e-conveyance (e-bike, e-scooter, etc.) after sunset comes with important safety requirements:
💡 A front-facing white light is required when riding after dark.�
🔆All bicycles and e-bikes must have reflectors on both wheels and a rear reflector to stay visible.

💯 Why it matters:�Proper lighting and reflectors help ensure you’re visible to other road users, preventing accidents and saving lives. Whether you’re commuting, exercising, or riding for fun, be seen, be safe.

Let’s work together to keep Murrieta’s streets safe for everyone!

E-bikes bring more speed and more risk!

E-bikes can reach speeds of 20 to 30 mph, and emergency departments are seeing more serious injuries among children and teens, including fractures and head trauma linked to e-bike crashes.

Because operating an e-bike safely requires maturity, experience, and quick decision-making, e-bikes are not recommended for children under 16.

If Your Teen Rides an E-bike:

✅Make sure they wear a helmet for every ride
✅Know and obey all traffic rules
✅Know how to control the bike's speed safely
✅Stay alert to cars and pedestrians
✅Ride responsibly & make smart decisions

We had a great time representing Bike Temecula Valley and Caught With Your Helmet On at this community event! 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

Our team connected with residents to discuss the importance of bike safety, shared information about safe riding practices, and talked about the growing bicycle network throughout the Temecula Valley.

We also had the opportunity to network with our local public safety officers and community partners who share our commitment to making our streets safer for everyone—whether you’re walking, biking, or driving.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth to say hello, ask questions, and support a more bike-friendly Temecula Valley. Together, we’re building a safer and more connected community.
