For the third year in a row, we are presenting awards at the Silicon Valley Bike Summit on August 22 in San Jose. Do you have a bike project in your community that has made your bike rides safer and more convenient? Is your city or company doing something extra special to get more people riding? Or maybe you know a person who has dedicated their time to making biking more accessible to all. Let us know by nominating them at the link below.
Award categories:
• Person of the Year –volunteer; elected official; or city, county, or other agency staff whose efforts go above and beyond to ensure safe and comfortable bicycling.
• Project of the Year – bike lane (buffered, green, or protected), bike bridge, bike boulevard, bike box, bike parking, bike trail, etc. that brings more people on to bikes.
• Program of the Year – education and encouragement programs or bike plans that shift the needle to get more people on bikes.
Nominate your favorite person, project, or program! Nominations will close May 31, 2017. We will then open up voting for the month of June based on the nominations that we’ve received.
