BikeBiz Bicycle and cycling retail news
In the most recent print edition of BikeBiz, we put out a call for you to send through photographic evidence of your British cycling trips.
We’re tracking the hashtag #BritishCyclingTrips, and want readers to send original material over. Tweet us at @BikeBizOnline to see your photo featured in the October 2016 edition of BikeBiz!
Additionally, nominations for the Cycling Media Awards, taking place on Thursday, November 10th at the Islington Metalworks, remain open.
