The August issue of BicycleBusiness contained an article featuring nineteen grass-roots heroes, folk who work tirelessly on the behalf of cycling, creating new customers in the process.

Clearly, we missed a lot out (not deliberately) so there will be a semi-regular slot on this site profiling some of the toilers we omitted. First up? Cycling Project for the North West
