The El Segundo Police Department said eBikeSense will return to El Segundo on Saturday, Nov. 8, from 10 a.m. to noon for a brief e-bike safety presentation and skills course.

The class is open to El Segundo residents or students who attend El Segundo Unified School District schools, Da Vinci School or Vista Mar High. The program is for ages 12 and up; minors must attend with a parent or guardian age 18 or older. Attendees must own an e-bike. To register, the segment provided a department web address (elsagundopd.org/e-bike-safety-course) and a phone number, (310) 524-2296.

Lieutenant Corey McEnroe, El Segundo Police Department, told the program's media segment that his division responds to major crashes 24 hours a day and that he is personally invested in e-bike safety as the father of two teenage sons whose friends ride e-bikes. "One of the big reasons that I'm passionate about ebikes and ebikes safety is because my division, the special operations division, we respond to all the major crashes that happen in the city 24 hours a day. And another reason ebikes safety is so important to me personally is I'm a father of 15 and 16 year old boys, and they're also students. And they have a lot of friends too, and their friends ride e bikes. And I've seen unsafe ebike riding throughout the entire South Bay. Ultimately, what El Segundo PD would love to see is safer e bike riding throughout the community, and it takes everybody," McEnroe said.

He added, "It's not just the police department. It's not just the police officers. It's not the city officials. It's the entire community, especially the parents."
