Mountain biking is an increasingly popular leisure pursuit. Consequences are trail degradation and conflicts with hikers and other users. Resource managers often attempt to resolve these problems by closing trails to mountain biking. In order to estimate the impact of these developments, a model has been devised that predicts the effects of changes in trail characteristics and introduction of access fees, and correlates these with biker preference on trail selection. It estimates each individual's per-ride consumer's surplus associated with implementing different policies. The surplus varies significantly as a function of each individual's gender, budget, and interest in mountain biking. Estimation uses stated preference data, specifically choice experiments. Hypothetical mountain bike trails were created and each surveyed biker was asked to make five pair-wise choices. A benefit-transfer simulation is used to show how the model and parameter estimates can be transferred to estimate the benefits and costs to mountain bikers in a specific area.

:山地自行车是一种越来越受欢迎的休闲活动。后果是步道退化以及与远足者和其他使用者的冲突。资源管理者通常试图通过关闭通往山地自行车的路线来解决这些问题。为了估计这些发展的影响,已经设计了一个模型,该模型可以预测步道特性变化和使用费的影响,并将这些与骑自行车的人对步道选择的偏好相关联。它估计了与实施不同政策相关的每个人的乘车消费者剩余。盈余随每个人的性别,预算和对山地自行车的兴趣而变化很大。估计使用陈述的偏好数据,特别是选择实验。创建了假想的山地自行车道,并要求每位接受调查的骑自行车的人做出五个成对选择。利益转移模拟用于说明如何将模型和参数估计值转移到特定区域的山地车手,以估计其收益和成本。
