Calling bike shops: Have your say on BikeBiz Awards 2014

This year we’re hoping to have more bicycle retailers than ever have their say in the BikeBiz Awards.

At the front line of the bicycle industry, who better to tell us which companies and brands deserve praising?

All it takes is a few moments – just email us at BikeBiz@intentmedia.co.uk then we’ll email you with a list of the finalists and a document that can choose to use or ignore in helping you decide. Then email it back and you’re done.

We’re also welcoming anyone else in the cycle trade to have their say and be an Awards judge. The more the merrier. Email us at BikeBiz@intentmedia.co.uk.

This year’s awards are supported by Platinum Partner cycleplan, Category Sponsor nuun and Event Partners Sealskinz and Cycle-SOS.

One nominee from each of the categories will receive one of the BikeBiz Awards. The awards night takes place on Wednesday September 24th at the Crowne Plaza Birmingham NEC, just a stone’s throw from the NEC exhibition hall setting of Cycle Show. Buy your tickets to the BikeBiz Awards 2014 here.
