On 1st June 2011, Charlie Pickering was awarded the National Media Award (Contribution towards Cycling by a Journalist or Media Personality) at Australian Bicycling Achievement Awards.
Charlie utilises his profile and current media roles to ensure that public discussions or debates on bicycle usage and riders are balanced and informed, advocating for greater cooperation by all transport users. With many in the media anti bikes, this has continued to be a challenge while maintaining a professional edge.
Charlie also publicly advocates for cycling through his roles as Celebrity Ambassador of Bicycle Victoria's Ride to Work Day and keen participant in the promotion of events such as 'Car Free Day'.
