You are officially invited to attend the official presentation of the 2009 Australian Bicycling
Achievement Awards in Canberra
at the Old Parliament House, Wednesday 16th June 2010
The Awards recognise success in getting more Australians
physically active on two wheels and this year we are delighted to have
received an extremely high calibre of nominations from all parts of the
country. They recognise both the professionals and ordinary Australians
who are creating a better, more bicycle friendly community.
The Cycling Promotion Fund is delighted that the Heart Foundation
is the principal partner for the 2009 Australian Bicycling Achievement
Awards. The support from the Heart Foundation for the Awards comes at a
time of increasing concern about rising obesity and falling levels of
physical activity among our school children and Australian
families.Tony Stubbs, Heart Foundation CEO - ACT will deliver the
welcoming address.
The Hon Maxine McKew, Parliamentary
Secretary for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local
Government will be the key note speaker. Ms McKew’s portfolio
responsibilities have a direct impact on cycling, active transport and
the investment in healthy communities and her views will be eagerly
sought by Award winners, industry and government stakeholders as we
head to the next federal election.
Stephen Hodge Vice President, Cycling Australia; Board Member, Amy
Gillett Foundation; Olympian and six time Tour de France finisher will be the Master of Ceremonies and members
