The relationship between e-bikes and the Tahoe National Forest (TNF) can best be described as “on again, off again.” Singletracks first reported on the allowance of eMTBs on non-motorized TNF trails in the summer of 2019. E-bike access was granted on 32 trails in five different trail networks.
While the TNF officially gave the “okay” for this new group of trail users to access trails, they made it very clear that they were not changing any policies.
However, this allowance was short-lived. Only a few months later, several equestrian groups filed lawsuits against the TNF, claiming allowing e-bikes disregarded the agency’s own policies.

Plastic. It’s literally everywhere on our planet, and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. And in case you missed the memo, “plastic recycling is not technically or economically viable at scale,” and is “virtually hopeless.” However, perhaps by using recycled plastics on a small scale, such as for these bicycles by mtrl.bike, this material can play more of a part in the circular economy of the future.
What began in 2014 as just an idea by Johannes Alderse Baas to make a bicycle from recycled plastic has since been developed into a prototype that will be put into small scale production, thanks to a partnership with igus motion plastics®. Formerly known as DutchFiets until 2022, mtrl.bike, along with igus:bike, is now behind the RCYL brand, which is taking pre-orders for these recycled plastic bikes, with a production run in the near future. And with the claim of being “almost maintenance-free,” requiring no oil, and being non-rusting, recycled plastic bikes might be a piece of the sustainable transportation puzzle.
It was all kicking off at Amstel Gold yesterday, with Matthieu Van Der Poel NOT winning a race, and Lorena Wiebes also NOT winning a race… Fortunately Dan is back to round up all the latest news and views from the world of bike racing, including Brabantse Pijl, the French Cup and Giro Da Bruzzo.
