I've ridden many trails in the area but for the first time my wife and I are traveling through with ebikes. Whats the situation there? Are most trails open or are many restricted? Source of information anyone can direct me to?

None are restricted for e-bikes as far as I know. Romero trail is ton of fun. San Ysidro, Cold Springs and Tunnel are great shuttle trails, Knapps/Snyder trail past SB towards Santa Ynez is shuttle-able and climbable.

Depending on where you are coming from, Simi Valley has Rocky Peak/Hummingbird, Grudge and G-Spot which is amazing, and Oak Park/Thousand Oaks has an excellent assortment such as Space Mountain and Mr Toads Wild Ride.

I personally am always down to ride Romero, but I have to manual mode it...

OK thanks for the info. We like to ride the Little Pine-Santa Cruz trail. Looking forward to the climb being a lot faster and more fun.

^Agreed Knapps/Syder is on the way into there. Camuesa and Arroyo Burro are great too!

Not sure if this is still a concern, but unfortunately there aren't many E-bike trails in Santa Barbara: San Antonio Creek Trail and Elings Park are two of the best places to rip around. Los Padres National Forest still has EBikes restricted to OHV roads only.

^None of the trails are "policed" though, and locals don't mind the e-bikes.
