🚨 COMING JUNE 22nd: The Ultimate Riding Essential ! 🚨

Mark your calendars, because on June 22nd, the official Calne Bike Meet seamless black bandanas are officially landing! Whether you’re smashing highway miles, hitting the twisties, or just heading down to the local bike night, this is the one piece of kit you shouldn’t leave home without.

We’ve taken a sleek, stealth-black tube bandana and stamped it with the iconic Calne Bike Meet logo so you can rep the UK’s favorite free bike meet in style.

Why every rider needs this in their kit bag:

Zero Seams, Zero Chafing: Standard bandanas have bulky hems that dig into your neck under a tight helmet. This 100% seamless design lays completely flat for pure comfort.

The Ultimate Wind & Grit Barrier: Sick of bugs at 60mph or road grit in your teeth? Pull it up over your nose instantly. It acts as a perfect shield against wind chill and flying debris.

High-Tech Microfiber Fabric: It breathes with you. It’s moisture-wicking to keep you sweat-free on hot summer days, but provides that crucial layer of insulation when the evening chill sets in.

12-in-1 Versatility: It’s a neck warmer, a face mask, a helmet liner to keep your lid clean, a headband for when the helmet comes off, or a wristband to wipe down your visor.

£4 each or 2 for £6

Every single purchase directly supports the event and helps us keep doing what we do. They are going to fly out fast, so keep your eyes glued here on June 22nd to claim yours!

🦆 What an absolutely incredible day at the Duck Race! 🏁💛

We want to send out a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who came out today to support us. Seeing so many smiling faces and feeling all the community love has been the absolute highlight of our weekend!

Your support means the world to us, especially everyone who stopped by the merch tent. You guys have been keeping us busy, and because of that... our stocks are running seriously low!
We will be pausing for a week in June to restock but some items we probably wont be able to get in time.

🚨 QUICK MERCH UPDATE: 🚨

Tin Signs: Only 80 left!

Pin Badges: Only 100 left!

T-shirts: Plenty !!!

Honestly, we don’t think we’ll be able to get any more back in stock for the 25th of July... maybe... but we wouldn't risk it! 😉
There will be some Tin Signs held back for on the Day.

If you’ve been eyeing them up, this is your sign to run, don't walk, and grab yours before they're gone for good!

Thank you all again for making today so special.

Calne Bike Meet is proud to support Paws for Pets, a vital local pet food bank dedicated to ensuring that no animal in our community goes hungry during difficult times.

In the current climate, many pet owners are facing the heartbreaking reality of struggling to afford food for their beloved companions. Paws for Pets provides a essential safety net, offering pet food, litter, and supplies to those in financial hardship. Their goal is simple: to keep pets with their owners and prevent animals from being surrendered to shelters due to rising costs.

By attending the Meet and supporting our fundraising efforts, you are directly helping this grassroots initiative. Every donation helps provide a bowl of food for a dog, cat, or small animal right here in Calne.

For more information on how to donate food or access support, you can find them on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/286355655385550/ or via the Calne Wordfest community page
