Nominations begin for Silicon Valley Bike Summit Awards 2020
The Silicon Valley Bike Summit 2020 is scheduled to be held on August 6 & 7. Given the Covid-19 situation, the Summit will be held online but this does not deter our efforts in awarding people who have been working hard to keep the Bicycle Movement rolling!
For the fifth year, SVBC will be presenting awards at the Bike Summit. The awards are not only a way to encourage people to do cool things related to biking, but also to recognize the dedication, time, and energy they are putting in to make things happen! This is your moment to nominate your favorite bike project, person, and program for the Summit Awards 2020!
Nominate your favorite person, project, program! Nominations will close June 22, 2020. We will then open up voting for the month of June and July based on the nominations we’ve received.
