Not only was I passed by this e-bike, it was a guy sailing through the stop sign, without even slowing down, and passed me when I was at my top cruising speed of 20.3. Considering the speed at which he passed me, I'd say he was going closer to 30 than 25, so he ran a stop sign, and was speeding.

E-bikes can go in excess of 35mph at full throttle, some are even able to go as high as 45mph. They need to not be allowed on MMPs or walking/biking trails. I think they should require registration and a drivers license, just like mopeds do.

You're telling the truth!!!!
My golf cart can go 24 miles an hour and I have been passed by E-bikes on the MMP's as well as Marsh Bend Trail. For what it's worth the only crash I have ever seen is with an E-bike trying to make the turn into one of the tunnels.
