Ned Boulting to present the BikeBiz Awards

Acclaimed sports presenter and cycling media personality Ned Boulting has been announced as the presenter of the 2017 BikeBiz Awards.

Boulting has been a mainstay of British sports coverage since 1997 and is perhaps most commonly known within the industry as the voice of ITV’s Tour de France coverage, which he’s presented for the network since 2003. Boulting is also known for his coverage of both the Tour of Britain and the Vuelta a Espana.

The presenter also gained notoriety for his extensive coverage of the 2012 London Summer Paralympics for Channel 4.

Boulting was awarded the Royal Television Society’s Sports News Reporter of the Year Award in 2006 for his outstanding contributions to the medium.

The 2017 awards ceremony will take place on February 16th so as to coincide with the cycling exhibition at the London Excel International Convention Centre.

The BikeBiz Awards will celebrate the best of the UK cycle trade and present a chance to congratulate the hard-working individuals who make the industry such an innovative environment.

Retail prizes will recognise high-achieving stores, local independent shops and giant online retailers; awards will also honour distributors and wholesalers, brands and those providing essential specialist services for the industry, from training to advocacy. Equally important is the chance that the BikeBiz Awards offer for the trade to meet, chat and make new business contacts.

Tickets can be purchased from the official website: www.bikebizawards.com.
