  • Press Release May 2016
    Edinburgh is getting ready for Scotland’s greatest celebration of bicycle culture The city will host the fourth edition of the Edinburgh Festival of Cycling from 9–19 June 2016. Edinburgh and its surroundings are a playground for pedal pushers. From testing punchy climbs to gentle rolls along the prom at Portobello, the city forms a stunning and dramatic backdrop for a host of challenges and opportunities for cyclists of all flavours. Born out of a shared passion for the pedal and cycling activism, Edinburgh’s Festival of Cycling is now in its fourth year and celebrates cycling and cycling culture in all its forms. This year’s festival runs from June 9-19 with events across the city and beyond. A volunteer-run social enterprise, the festival has grown year-on-year with events attended by thousands of cyclists – hipsters, hill climbers, bikepackers, cycle speedway racers, night riders, Belles on Bikes, all- ability cyclists, tourers, recumbent bikers, speedway kids, families…and last year one guy in a panda suit on a bamboo bike… As well as celebrating bike culture, the festival is about getting people involved; it’s about getting people active; supporting their transport, health and green activism; holding events that inspire and celebrate all the wonderful things cycling and the city have to offer. This year’s festival hears from inspirational women and men who have taken on incredible challenges, tests of endurance or the might of male- dominated cyclesport; sees the second running of the Capital Trail bikepacking challenge with a UK-wide field riding through the Lothians and Borders; recumbent cyclists take to the road and cycle speedway kids take to the track in come and try sessions.
