Have your say and help pick the winners of our coveted annual awards


Voting in our Rider of the Year awards, presented by Lezyne, closes today, so make sure you cast your vote and help crown our winners.

You still have time to have your say in our Rider of the Year and Newcomer of the Year categories. The winners of our Lifetime Achievement awards will be decided by our expert panel.

Voting closes today (15 October). The results will be announced at an exclusive awards ceremony at our Bristol HQ, with the road and gravel winners featured in issue 440 of Cycling Plus, out on 19 December, and the mountain bikers in issue 454 of MBUK, out on 2 December.

All of those who’ve made the cut in our mountain bike awards are truly deserving of recognition, from young rippers setting the scene alight to racers at the top of their game and veterans who’ve helped make our sport what it is today.
