Cambridge Festival of Cycling
Celebrating the city's cycling culture
Join Camcycle, the Cambridge Cycling Campaign, to celebrate the joy of cycling, share your cycling experiences, learn new things and share in our vision for more, better and safer cycling in and around Cambridge for all ages and abilities. Most events are free and all are welcome; you don’t need to be a Camcycle member and you don’t need to be someone that already cycles. Just come along and join the fun!
Sadly, owing to the pandemic we have not been able to host the festival in 2020 or 2021. However, during September 2021 we are sharing events and activities to help people get cycling on our social media channels. Follow the tag #CambsCyclingSeptember on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram for cycling inspiration!
