The Rotary Club of Chippenham and Calne
Classic Car and Bike Run
Sunday 17th May 2026
Our carefully composed routes are changed every year. Drivers or riders pass through Wiltshire countryside, with highlights like Silbury Hill and Avebury Stone Circle: that is why many of our drivers return year on year. It will be lovely to have you back, or maybe joining us for the first time.
This year’s Classic Car and Bike Run takes place on Sunday 17th May and will follow a 70 mile.
Classic Cars and Bikes start arriving at 8.00 am at Calne Leisure Centre, SN11 0SP Car Park, with breakfast provided by Calne Lions. The best opportunity for the public to see all the cars and wave them off at the start is between 8.00 am and 10.00 am at Calne Leisure Centre.
The morning coffee stop is at the Treehouse Café in the beautiful Bowood Estate, and the finish is at Sheldon School, Chippenham SN14 6HJ, with lunch available.
Dogs are welcome (on a short lead), and of course there are prizes for the Best Dressed Driver/Passengers, Cutest Dog, President’s Favourite Car, and the best Teddy or other much loved toy.
The event is open to cars, motorcycles and light commercial vehicles that are 25 years or older. The number of entrants will be limited to 100 to prevent bunching on the route and to facilitate parking both before the run and at the coffee stop. Entry costs are £32.00 per car and £16.00 per motorcycle.
Contact details for anyone wishing to enter are :-
