Traffic. Short connectors, not a rail-trail day.
4. What this county is not

5. US 191 as a maybe
Highway. Not a path.
6. Honest add-on: basin wind

Half-day and full-day eBike plans
Half day, Lewistown (2 hours): Town pavement toward a posted city park. Turn around at the closed gate.

Do not: ride limited-access interstate. Not a path.
What not to ride

Montana eBike rules snapshot
Montana does not use a three-class electric bicycle statute. Mont. Code Ann. §61-8-102 defines an electrically assisted bicycle as a vehicle with two tandem wheels and an electric motor that cannot propel the machine and a 170-pound rider faster than 20 mph on a paved, level surface. Bicycle includes that machine. A faster machine is not an electrically assisted bicycle under that section.
Supporting sidewalk and bike-lane language lives in §61-8-608. Land-manager signs still win on park roads, national forest, BLM, and NPS. Native-soil cuts are not a statewide grant. Read our Montana eBike laws snapshot, then the sign. Gold follows the statute, not a stale blog line.
Lewistown pavement and posted city-park loops are the honest Fergus start. Confirm current hours on the city page the morning you ride. US 87 is a traffic connector, not a path.
Judith Basin wind cuts range more than hills. Dawn is the honest window. Carry a layer. An electrically assisted bicycle under §61-8-102 does not open a closed park gate. Native-soil Snowy Range cuts stay with the land manager.
This directory is thin. Call the Lewistown card before you trailer from Great Falls expecting a walk-up fleet. A directory listing is a phone, not today's inventory.
River's Edge Trail is Cascade County. Glacier is Glacier County. Do not paste those onto a Lewistown street day.
§61-8-102 is single-tier. There is no statewide three-class statute. City signs still win on park loops. US 191 is a highway, not a path.
Stick to lit Main Street and posted park pavement. May through October is the honest basin window. A January glaze on brick is a turnaround.
