Just to clarify for the last time:
1) The individuals that I met representing People for Bikes, the group that spearheaded the CA, UT & NC laws and are working in other states now, had no intention for their law to pertain to off road activities.
2) A friend told me that the superintendent of parks in Orange County, CA has prohibited e-bikes in parks under his control except for physically challenged individuals, although Rangers in the Santa Monica mountains are allowing Class 1 bikes in their parks.
3) This is moot in Orange County since there is almost no policing of the trails. I have met one individual who was accosted by a Ranger and told that he shouldn't ride his e-MTB in the park, but he could continue that day.
