Effort Focused on Expanding Access to Safety Education
IRVINE, CA, UNITED STATES, April 30, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — This May, riders across the country can take their eBike skills and safety to the next level — for free. In celebration of May Bicycle Month, America’s premier online eBike eCourse, normally $35.99, will be available to everyone at no cost.
Whether commuting to school or work, cruising to a favorite coffee spot, or riding with friends, electric bicycles (eBikes) are transforming the way people get around by offering a fun, efficient, low-effort way to travel and recreate. But as more riders take to the streets, many are still struggling to navigate traffic safely and understand the unique features of eBikes.
To meet that growing need and support safe riding in communities across the country, PeopleForBikes and the Motorcycle Safety Foundation are offering free access to their interactive online eBike eCourse. The course covers the basics of eBike ownership and rules of the road and includes practice drills designed to help riders build confidence and improve their skills.
Riders can register for free access at eBikecourse.com/MBM.
The course helps riders get ready for real-world eBike riding, from choosing the right bike and quality gear to navigating traffic and riding with friends.
“PeopleForBikes works to make biking safer and more fun for everyone by supporting great places to ride, smart policies, and better education,” said Jenn Dice, President and CEO of PeopleForBikes. “As eBikes allow more people to experience the joy and benefits of bicycling, this free course helps those riders build the skills and confidence they need to ride safely.”
Additional resources — including a readiness checklist, guidance on talking to kids about eBike safety, riding tips, and downloadable promotional materials — are available at eBikecourse.com/resources.
“This course is designed to help riders better understand their eBikes and make informed decisions on the road,” said Christy LaCurelle, President and CEO of the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. “When more people have access to quality safety education, entire communities benefit. We’re proud to work with PeopleForBikes to make this course free during May Bicycle Month and help more riders get the knowledge they need to ride safer.”
