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.

The Cycling Promotion Fund, an initiative of Bicycle Industries Australia Ltd, 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 in 2002.

The Bicycling Achievement Awards are sponsored by companies, organisations and Government Departments who recognize the great benefits of increased cycling.

Nominations are invited from individuals, organisations, businesses and Government Departments that have made a valuable contribution towards promoting and encouraging cycling.

How to nominate

We would like to keep the nomination process as simple and straight forward as possible but at the same time we require enough information for the selection committee to make an informed choice.

We have developed an online nomination process and encourage nominators to use the online nomination form to submit an application. If you are unable to make an online nomination, hard copies are also accepted.

Please consider the particular Award category criteria and eligibility when submitting a nomination. Although the 2007 Awards focus on accomplishments related to cycling in the past year, providing details of past involvement is useful.

The booklet provides a summary of all nominations and winners to share information about projects that promote cycling and/or make a contribution towards improving conditions for bicycle riders. For more information about specific achievements please contact the individuals concerned.

The Cycling Promotion Fund is an innovative initiative of Bicycle Industries Australia to enable the bicycle industry to work collectively to promote and encourage cycling and to work with stakeholders around Australia to create a more bicycle friendly Australia.
