The International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) is a 501(c)3 non-profit educational organization. Our mission is to create, enhance and protect great places to ride bikes. Since 1988, IMBA has been bringing out the best in mountain biking by encouraging low-impact riding, volunteer trail work participation, cooperation among different trail user groups, grassroots advocacy and innovative trail management solutions. IMBA's staff, chapters, clubs and members work to benefit the entire mountain bike community. We create a powerful voice for trails, public lands and management policies that welcome bikes. We advocate for mountain bike access and acceptance nationwide. We build sustainable trails and bike facilities to make mountain biking more accessible. We teach environmentally responsible trail building and trail etiquette practices. We inspire more people to experience the outdoors on bicycles. We educate bike groups on how to organize and make mountain biking better at the local level. IMBA's worldwide network includes 40,000+ individual members, 200+ IMBA Chapters, 400+ clubs, 200+ corporate partners, 700+ retail shops and over 100,000+ subscribers to our messaging. Joining your local IMBA chapter is the most effective way for you to build and maintain the amazing trails you love to ride. Your membership dues support your local chapter's work, and IMBA's efforts nationwide. IMBA's U.S and international headquarters in the United States are located in Boulder, Colorado. Domestically, we currently have more than 32 staff members, including trail building professionals located across the country. IMBA represents our members, supports our chapters and our work benefits the mountain biking community.

At Rails to Trails Conservancy (RTC), we believe that communities are healthier and happier when trail networks are central to their design. Since 1986, RTC has worked to bring the power of trails to more communities across the country, serving as the national voice for the rail-trail movement. With more than one million grassroots supporters, 23,000 miles of rail-trails on the ground nationwide and more than 8,000 miles of rail-trails ready to be built, our focus is on linking these corridors—creating trail networks that connect people and places, bringing transformative benefits to communities all across the country. Our flagship initiatives—TrailLink.com, TrailNation™ and the Great American Rail-Trail™—bring that strategy to life, connecting millions of people by trail. For three decades, RTC has served as the national voice for trails, setting the precedent that rail-trails are need-to-have community assets and establishing policies and practices that ensure these trails are built.
