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? |
