The trophy is awarded for promoting cycling activities, and throughout the year the Louth group raised cash for local charities through their work.

The West Lincolnshire Trophy was awarded to Cycling UK Gainsborough member Daniel Nicholson, while Melanie Carroll was awarded the BSA Merit Cup for setting up a ladies’ cycling group in Lincoln and also won the Cycling UK Lincolnshire Photography Trophy.
