    There must be a few possible nominees in this parish?
    e.g. improvements on Gogar Station Rd, POP etc.

    The Cycling Champion of the Year will be presented to an individual whose contribution has made a significant impact on cycling at a local, regional or national level.

    Tempting to nominate people who have had a significant negative impact...

    Ooh, that is a good one.

    I was thinking of Holmston Road in Ayr, as well as a certain community councillor in the west of Edinburgh.

    Ah yes, the Ayr thing was truly outstanding.

    Many congratulations to our own @Sallyhinch for winning this. A worthy winner. There isn't much cycle campaigning in Scotland that Sally isn't involved in one way or another. I know she has helped me a lot and I'm sure others too despite not actually living in Edinburgh.

    Also recognised was @DomD for the excellent work on #OperationClosePass, spearheading a successful pilot in Edinburgh that is now being rolled out across Scotland.

    Well done both. Much appreciated.

    Three absolute champions there. Totally missed the announcement.

    Anybody else unsure of the different roles of Cycling Scotland, Scottish Cycling and Cycling UK (Scotland)?

    “Anybody else unsure of the different roles of Cycling Scotland, Scottish Cycling and Cycling UK (Scotland)?“

    Plenty, - and even more that haven’t heard of any of them!

    In short -

    SemI-quango

    Sport

    Previously ‘touring’ now more involved in campaigning and encouraging ‘new’ cyclists.
