12.01.2008/ Our readers voted for the Cyclingheroes 2007 awards. We did not nominate riders or races for the awards, our readers were free to vote for any rider they wanted to. Today we will announce the winners of the Cyclingheroes 2007 awards. Readers who participated in the voting could win some fantastic prices. We will notify the pricewinners by e-mail.

 

Another year full of trouble came to an end. But we should not forget there were a lot of great races and riders as well. The Cyclingheroes Awards were decided by our readers. We did not pre select any races or riders for the awards. We wanted our readers to pick any rider or race they wanted.
