The AusCycling Cyclist of the Year will receive the prestigious Oppy Medal and the Sir Hubert Opperman Trophy, which has been presented since 1958 to the year’s most outstanding all-round rider.

Last year, freestyle BMX superstar Logan Martin took out the top award after a brilliant season that included an Olympic gold medal and a UCI World Championship victory.

From now until November 23, AusCycling is calling for nominations for men and women in the following categories:

Discipline Awards

  • BMX Racing Rider of the Year

  • Track Cyclist of the Year
  • Road Cyclist of the Year

Age-based Category Awards

  • Masters Cyclist of the Year (overall all disciplines)
  • Junior Cyclist of the Year (overall all disciplines)

The winners of the discipline awards will be the finalists for the Oppy Medal. The winners will be announced in a virtual award ceremony in December.
