Curious to know what factors were considered when determining the host city? Here's a few:
- This year's biannual event for the nonprofit group was in Portland, Ore. It attracted about 760 people from 18 countries — including Australia, Brazil, China and Russia — giving that city a projected economic impact of $1.3 million, Mitchell said.
- Among the many reasons why Dayton was chosen to host this event was access to cycling, mountain biking, river, hiking, backpacking, equestrian, motorized and ADA-accessible trails — all of which will be featured during the International Trails Symposium.
- With more than 330 miles of paved trails is the largest such network in the country, according to MetroParks.
