Ebikes are heavy, but these people probably drove to the trailhead and lifted their bikes off trailers/racks. Why would a knee-high fence stop them?

    Ebikes aren't even that heavy compared to normal bikes. Normal bikes are like 15 kg, ebikes more like 25 kg. That seems like a lot in %, but when you include the rider at like 70-95 kg, it seems negligible. Even when talking about lifting them, if seems not really like an issue?

    I don't think this "barrier" is gonna stop any rider under the age of like 75 or so.
