Know someone who deserves national recognition for their commitment to promoting cycling? A local council
or state government that has helped improve conditions for all bicycle riders?
A bike shop or local business who goes further than just providing good customer service? A fantastic cycling event
that deserves recognition?
A professional or volunteer who's shown a real
commitment towards making Australia more bicycle-friendly? Or you know of a
media personality, journalist or politician who's shown their support for
cycling? Make your nomination now!
The Cycling
Promotion Fund, (CPF) an initiative of Bicycle
Industries Australia Ltd. (BIA), believes that making Australia more
cycling friendly requires vision, commitment, action, innovation and
persistence. Without the work of dedicated individuals and organisations, many
of the facilities and initiatives that we have the benefit of today would not
be there.
To achieve this, the CPF established the Australian
Bicycling Achievement Awards in 2002. Since the Awards inception, the scope and
quality of nominations has increased considerably, illustrating the excellent
initiatives being undertaken that are shaping the future of Australian
bicycling.
The National
Heart Foundation of Australia is the principal partner for the 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.
The Australian Bicycling Achievement Awards are open for
nominations to 5pm, Friday, 18 March 2011. |
