16 November 2022 | Announcement, Events
We Ride Australia is delighted to announce that WeRide Board member, TV host and media identity, Osher Günsberg, will host the 2022 Australian Cycling Luminaries Awards in Sydney on Friday 25th November.
Osher Günsberg is one of Australia’s most recognisable media personalities, having been a guest in the living rooms of Australians for over 20 years.
Osher joined WeRide to help in its mission to ensure the choice to ride a bike helps Australia’s move to a healthier, happier and more sustainable future.
“I am so pleased to be able to help celebrate all the people around this country who are ensuring riding a bike is an option for everyone, whether they are a youngster or in their 80’s,
“It’s such an enormous pleasure to do our local trips by bike with my son Wolfie, he loves our time together on the bike and I know the experience will be with him for life,” said Mr Günsberg.
The announcement that Osher Günsberg is to host the Awards follows last Monday’s announcement that Anangu man Zibeon Fielding would be providing the Key Note Address at the Gala Awards Dinner on the 25th November.
“Zibeon’s achievements are so inspirational, and on a night when we honour those in our industry that work to make cycling more accessible to more Australians every day, it’s great to be reminded of how transformational something as simple as a bicycle can be,” Osher Günsberg added.
To find out who the national Award winners will be and hear Zibeon’s amazing story, join us for the Gala Awards Dinner in Sydney at the Royal Randwick Racecourse’s Grand Ballroom.
