The 86 riders attending also include National Series winners and youths who have taken the top step in the support races which run alongside the Scottish National Championships.
Over the course of a season there are 158 Scottish National titles to be won across all of the disciplines and multiple age categories.
Scottish Cycling’s Performance Development rider Lusia Steele, Johnstone Wheelers CC, will be picking up not one, but seven awards in recognition of her achievements throughout the year.
Other multiple award winners include Joe Nally (Hardie-Bikes), Jonathan Mitchell (Billy Bilsland Cycles) and Jack Cruden (Glasgow Riderz) to name but a few.
As well as the Scottish National Champions, Scottish Cycling would also like to recognise the Scottish Olympians and Paralympians in Team GB who brought back medals from Rio; Callum Skinner, Katie Archibald, Neil Fachie and Karen Darke took back four gold and one silver medal from Team GBs most successful away Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Craig Burn, Scottish Cycling Chief Executive, said:
“We are delighted that we are able to recognise our Scottish National Champions this year alongside the success of the Scottish Cyclists who competed in the Rio Olympics and Paralympics with Team GB.
The inspiration our Scottish National Champions bring is invaluable to our sport; the work they put in day after day, alongside work and family life to achieve at the highest level in Scotland is outstanding.
By honouring and recognising the achievement of these riders we are not only congratulating them for their efforts, but also inspiring our younger athletes coming up through the ranks to keep pedalling.”
