Three ways to do the day

Watch it,
ride it,
or trade at it.

Whether you're bringing the family for the afternoon or bringing a bike or trike for the ride-out, there's a way in.

The ride-out

Ride in with
three hundred
others.

The heart of the whole thing. Bikes and trikes gather at Brechin Castle, tour out through Edzell and back by Forfar, then arrive into the park together.

The Full Throttle Bar

Every pint pays
for the day.

The bar is run by the committee, not a concession. It's licensed, it's family friendly, and what it takes goes straight back into keeping the festival free to walk into.

    Licensed, but it's a park and a day out, not a beer tent.

Getting here

Two places
to find.

Most folk who got lost last year were looking for the wrong one. The festival is in the park. The ride-out starts at the castle.
