CycleFest @ Castle Combe uses the Castle Combe Race Circuit for a charity cycling day organized with Wiltshire & Bath Air Ambulance. It caters to families and regular riders. Options include a relaxed family ride on the main circuit, allowing participants to complete any number of laps, and a longer road challenge beginning at the same location. The event generates funds for the air ambulance, with reduced challenge entry fees linked to a minimum fundraising commitment.
The family ride welcomes all ages and skill levels, enabling children, novice riders, and experienced cyclists to share the track without competitive racing. The road option departs from Castle Combe, venturing into the Wiltshire and Bath countryside before returning to the circuit. Recent editions have featured 40-mile and 65-mile routes, with participants receiving a CycleFest medal upon completion. Food vendors, stalls, and children’s activities transform the circuit into a central hub, and the event signifies Wiltshire Air Ambulance’s reintroduction of its cycling fundraiser after a hiatus.
