The nominations are in — and now it’s your turn to help celebrate the incredible people, clubs, businesses, and organizations that keep North Texas rolling.
This year’s UPSHIFT Awards shine a light on the heart and soul of our cycling community — the volunteers, advocates, educators, social ride leaders, and partners who make this region safer, stronger, and more connected.
We’re thrilled to share that this year’s program includes 44 nominees across 9 award categories, representing the work, creativity, and compassion of more than 70 people who took the time to nominate their bike heroes.
