The Cycling Promotion Fund is calling for nominations to the Bicycling Achievement Awards. Making Australia more bicycle friendly requires action, commitment, innovation, vision and persistence. Without the work of dedicated individuals and organisations, many of the facilities and initiatives we take for granted today would not be there. Maybe you know of a hard-working person in your area, a cycling group, local school, bicycle shop, bicycle-friendly business, local council or shire, councillor, politician or an organisation that deserves recognition from the cycling community?
The Cycling Promotion Fund believes that recognising innovation and commitment is vital in maintaining momentum and sustaining action around Australia. To achieve this we established the Bicycling Achievement Awards.
Since their inception the range and quality of nominations has increased considerably, illustrating the excellent work happening around Australia in shaping the future of bicycling.
All nominees will be included in a booklet that is distributed far and wide. Winners in each category will also receive a cash prize of $1,000. Deadline for nominations is the 19th December 2008.
