The Bicycle Friendly Business Awards (BFBAs) are presented annually to businesses and other organizations in Toronto that demonstrate leadership in encouraging cycling by employees and clients. All businesses that support cycling help the City to achieve one of the goals of the Toronto Bike Plan to double the number of bicycle trips made in the city by the year 2011.
Congratulations go out to the winners of the 2007 Bicycle Friendly Business Awards! The October 4 ceremony was a big success. Thank you to all who attended, including winners, judges, award presenters, and sponsors. Together, we have succeeded once again in making our city even more bike-friendly for all!
