FORT COLLINS — Joggers and hikers are asking the Fort Collins City Council to bar electric bicycles from trails over safety concerns.

The council will take up a proposal on Tuesday that would allow use of the bicycles on paved trails for a one-year trial.

According to the Fort Collins Coloradoan (http://noconow.co/sRaaDO ), supporters say the electric bicycles won't jeopardize safety. Opponents say the bicycles can travel up to 20 miles per hour and make trails more treacherous.
