Have an e-bike? It may not be allowed on the Mickelson Trail. A recent hearing at the Senate Ag Committee debated types of e-bikes and whether they impact safety on the trails.

Senate Bill 56 was heavily amended by the committee, which approved the amended bill on a 5-2 vote and sent it to the Senate, where it passed by a vote of 21 to 12.

It now heads to the House.
