Bike Doylestown

Doylestown Borough is a bike friendly community. Bike racks are provided through out town so riders can park their bike while they shop, visit and dine. The Doylestown Community Bike and Hike Network is a network of 25 miles of completed trails, shared roadways and side-paths for use by bicyclists and pedestrians. The Doylestown trails connect to the larger Pennsylvania system of trails, including Bicycle Route “S”, and the 202 Parkway trail, which includes a shoulder bike lane and a separate paved 12-foot wide multi-use trail.

Rules & Guidelines

Motorists and cyclists should understand that bicycles are vehicles and therefore subject to all the same rules of the road as a car, with some special exceptions.

-It is illegal for anyone under age 16 to ride an electric bike of any kind.

-§ 3503. Responsibility of parent or guardian:
The parent of any child and the guardian of any ward shall not authorize or knowingly permit the child or ward to violate any of the provisions of this title relating to the operation of pedalcycles.

Bikes provide a sustainable and healthy alternative to cars and are very well suited for a town like ours. When bikes and cars share the road, everyone benefits.
