19-21 April - Bennetts British Superbike Championship
With a lightning finish to last season seeing Tarran Mackenzie being crowned the British Champion we look forward to the first round of the 2022 season at the iconic Silverstone circuit in Northamptonshire.
If you’ve never been to a British Superbike Event then we can't recommend it enough. It's a great day out for all the family and a fantastic opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the best riders in the country.
14-15 May - MCN Festival of Motorcycling
With the Live Action Arena bringing you all the action of the Dirt Track Riders Association along with Moped Mayhem, Jaw-Dropping Stunts, Motorcycle test rides and of course autojumbles and great deals on the latest retail items, the MCN festival of motorcycling is a brilliant day out for everyone.
20-22 May - The Malle Beach Race
Another brilliant Malle event to get in the calendar is the Beach Race which takes place on the wonderful sandy beach of Margate. You’ll see all kinds of weird and wonderful bikes pitted against each other down the sands. An event unlike any other!
27-29 May - The Bike Shed Show
‘For the people who love motorcycles, and the people who love people who love motorcycles…’ is what the BikeShed show is all about. Europe's biggest and best independent motorcycle show brings the very best custom motorcycles from all across the UK and beyond.
Set in the stunning location of London's historic tobacco docks, the Bike Shed makes it clear that ‘this is not a motorcycle trade fair’ rather, it's a fantastic family-friendly event full of brilliant bikes, food, music and just an all-round good time.
24 - 26 June - Adventure Bike Rider Festival
For all things adventure rider… this festival is jam-packed with the latest and greatest adventure bikes on the market and gives you an opportunity to ride a 20km adventure trail along with some tuition to help improve your off-road skills. You can also expect guest speakers, live music, enduro courses, guided green lane ride-outs and masterclass sessions. The Adventure Bike rider festival provides a fantastic platform to dive into the world of adventure riding.
21-24 July - Malle Mile
A firm favourite of ours here at RideTo, The Malle Mile encapsulates everything (we think) that's great about motorcycles and the moto community. Now based in the beautiful Grimsthorpe Castle outside of Peterborough, you’ll be surrounded by wonderful British countryside mixed with the sound of motorcycles… what more could you ask for.
The races, which anyone can get involved in, take place throughout the weekend including The Mile Sprint, The Hill Climb, The Malle 100, The Dash, The Derby and the Art of The Sprint.
Don’t worry if you’ve never been before, the Malle team work hard to make this a very inclusive event so either dip a toe or dive straight into one of the most enjoyable weekends on the motorcycle calendar.
29-31 July- Camp VC
This women's only festival is filled with all kinds of motorcycle events from Beginner Riding school, Adventure Bike Trail Riders to Enduro School, Wheelie School and Trails School so you really have an amazing opportunity to try your hand at aspects of motorcycling. Along with the bike stuff, there's skateboarding, Yoga Classes, Creative Workshops, Wellness Classes, Photography and Outdoor Skills Workshops.
You can go Camp VC and come away with a whole host of new skills. You’re going to have to be quick as the 2021 festival sold out in a record 72 hours.
19-27 November - Motorcycle Live
One of the biggest and best motorcycle trade shows on the calendar, you can expect all the major manufacturers turning out with the latest iterations of their bikes for you to see. You can also get involved with the Moto Trails Experience and Adventure Experience if you’re wanting to ride some bikes yourself. You can usually expect announcements from racers as well as celebrity appearances throughout the 9 days of the show.
