On November 5th 2008 RABO Tricycles received The Classics Prize 2008/09 at The Danish Design Awards for RABO's "Trike 1". The prize was awarded by HRH The Crown Prince of Denmark and accepted by RABO Tricycles.

The jury said: "The RABO Trike 1 is an uncompromising and robust design. The RABO tricycle for preschool children has been popular ever since its launch, and there are probably many trikes more than 25 years old that are still in use today. Form and colour appeal to children, and the trike has a safe and well-considered design."

Rabo Tricycles wish to send special thanks to The Danish Design Center, the Jury and Pelikan Design: Niels Gammelgaard, Hans Carl Jacobsen and Lars Mathiesen.
