It’s that time of year again when we’re looking for the people who’ve made the biggest contribution to cycling, from racers to fundraisers, organisers to bike-industry stalwarts.
In 2025, the Rider of the Year award went to mental health advocate Amy Hudson, of the Amy Cycling Adventures YouTube channel. Paralympic cyclist Archie Atkinson was voted Newcomer of the Year, while Welsh cycling legend Geraint Thomas took the well-deserved Lifetime Achievement award.
Now, we want nominations for the 2026 awards, which are once again supported by the fine people at Lezyne. We’ve got three categories – Rider of the Year, Newcomer of the Year and Lifetime Achievement. The nomination form will remain open until 23 August.
