Under new rules, e-bikes aren’t allowed on Moab’s mountain bike-specific trails like Captain Ahab.
In a move that could prove to be a bellwether for other trail systems across the US, the Moab Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has posted updated guidelines to their web page putting electric-powered bicycles in the same category as gas-powered vehicles, effectively banning them from numerous trails in and around the Utah mountain bike mecca.
While motor assisted bicycles are now not allowed on mountain bike trails, they are permitted on any motorized route open to motorcycles and off-road vehicles. This includes portions of classic trails like Porcupine Rim, where e-bikes are permitted on the “Jeep road” sections, but not the singletrack.
While significant, e-bikes will still have access to hundreds of miles of trails and unpaved roads in the area.
The BLM has published an updated PDF map showing the following trails it lists as “Mountain Bike Trails”:
Amasa Back Area
Bartlett/Jedi Slickrock
Gemini Bridges/Mag 7 Area
Klondike Bluffs Area
Klonzo Trails
Kokopelli Trail
Lower Monitor and Merrimac
Moab Brands (Bar M)
Pipe Dream
Porcupine Rim
Slickrock Bike Trail
