Cycling Weekly is once again looking for the cycling clubs and individuals across the UK that make the cycling scene what it is. Every year we present a Local Hero and Club of the Year award to the people nominated by you. This is your chance to get the recognition for the hardworking people who provide you and your local scene with the opportunities to ride.

The Local hero award goes to the individuals who have given up their time so that others can ride or race. Previous winners have ranged from event promoters to marshals, coaches, club officials and custodians of the record books. All have one thing in common, they're dedicated to their local scene, and revered by those around them.

Our Club of the Year title has been awarded to the groups who are more than just a cycling club. They're a focal point of their local cycling scene and a part of their local community. All clubs have demonstrated a passion for getting people on bikes or developing raw talent into polished racers. Their members go above and beyond to grow the club and give people more chances to ride, maybe through regular club rides, organised events, coaching sessions or more.

If you and your club mates want to nominate your club, please fill in this form and tell us what the club does, and why you think it deserves to win the award. Please only do one entry per club, if there are multiple entries we will judge the club on the best one.

Simon Richardson
Magazine editor

Editor of Cycling Weekly magazine, Simon has been working at the title since 2001. He first fell in love with cycling in 1989 when watching the Tour de France on Channel 4, started racing in 1995 and in 2000 he spent one season racing in Belgium. During his time at CW (and Cycle Sport magazine) he has written product reviews, fitness features, pro interviews, race coverage and news. He has covered the Tour de France more times than he can remember along with the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games and many other international and UK domestic races. He became the 134-year-old magazine's 13th editor in 2015 and can still be seen riding bikes around the lanes of Surrey, Sussex and Kent. Albeit a bit slower than before.
