A new dedicated WebsiteTrack Day dates announcedGrand National Meeting featureBikesafe & Track Day
And a chance to meet the Motorcycle team at the Bristol Classic Bike Show this weekend (7th & 8th February) at the Shepton Mallet showground. You will find us on stand 5A in the main hall.From this weekend you can find all the details of our many 2 wheeled activities on our new website:www.castlecombemotorcycling.co.uk
This will allow us to provide you with more information and news about the race meeting, track days, Safety performance riding days and the police run BikeSafe & Track Day, so do have a look. We will keep it regularly updated.
As well as our hugely popular Bike Track Days, (which you can now book on to here) we also have something a little different this year with our UBW—the Ultimate Bike Weekend, Friday 26th June - Sunday 28th June. 3 days of motorcycle pleasure, Day one on the track where all our usual riding and safety conditions will apply.

Plans for this year's Grand National Meeting on Saturday 27th & Sunday 28th June are coming together nicely! With the success of last year’s meeting we did wonder how we could better it, but there's already plenty to look forward to including the return of the British F2 sidecars, back after a few years absence who join a full programme of solo classes, including the Lansdowne Classics. Plus we have the Classic & Special parade and on Sunday we will celebrate 50 years since the longest race in the circuits history was run in 1965, the Coup D Endurance with several famous names from that period attending. Keep an eye on the news section on the new website for announcements.
Perhaps the best free motorcycle event of the year is the Police run BikeSafe & Track Day, now in peak summer—Saturday 11th July, And this looks a belter with most of the major manufactures showing off their latest models, lots of traders, fun things for the kids, stunt displays and soon to be announced one of the greatest names in motorcycle racing attending—and its free to get in. The riding sessions on the road and then on the track must be pre booked. Each year this has been a sell out so have a look at the website for full details.We look forward to welcoming you. Safe riding.
