New Jersey’s E-Bike Crackdown Hits RV Travelers Hard
New Jersey just rolled out the strictest e-bike law in the country, and it’s creating serious headaches for RVers. The new rules lump all e-bikes, whether low-speed pedal-assist or powerful e-moto models, into a single regulated category requiring a driver’s license, registration, and insurance. Out-of-state travelers passing through could unknowingly find themselves in violation, and there’s still no clear path for short-term compliance. Cycling advocates argue the law is overreaching and penalizes responsible riders, while exemptions for rental programs only add to the confusion. For now, RVers heading into New Jersey should be prepared for a very different set of rules.

Love’s Travel Stops is betting big on RV travel in 2026 with a major expansion that includes 23 new RV-friendly stops and 150 new hookups nationwide. That brings their total RV locations past 140, with over 2,000 hookups expected. The company also plans to start offering RV tires and batteries at 79 sites, folding maintenance into its all-in-one convenience model. These upgrades are part of Love’s broader $700 million Road Ahead Plan, which includes remodeling, EV chargers, truck parking, and even a new Whataburger opening. For RVers looking for consistency and services in one spot, Love’s is shaping up to be a go-to hub on the road.
Read moreWater Crisis Forces Partial Shutdown at Big Bend National Park
Big Bend National Park is dealing with a major water emergency after a key pump failed, cutting off the only water source for its Chisos Basin area. The lodge is closed, and water access at nearby campgrounds is limited. At over 800,000 acres, the park is already water-scarce due to drought and overuse of aquifers. Now, with aging infrastructure and declining Rio Grande flows, experts say this isn’t just a temporary issue, but rather part of a deeper, long-term challenge. The park’s closure also comes as other major parks like the Grand Canyon and Glacier deal with similar shortages, highlighting the growing strain on public lands.

RVshare’s 2026 Travel Trend Report shows that RVers are leaning into simpler, cost-conscious trips—and steering away from crowded national parks. While the Grand Canyon still tops the list, there’s growing interest in less-trafficked gems like Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Crater Lake, and Canyonlands. Nearly 9 out of 10 travelers are looking to save money, and many are choosing the off-season to skip both the costs and the chaos. The takeaway? Familiar spots still have their fans, but seasoned RV travelers are rethinking the way they explore the outdoors.

I love Love’s, but the prices on their RV stops is getting out of hand. They’ve doubled in price in less than a year!
