The event runs from 10am-3pm, on the corner of the Market Square. The biggest event will be the following day, which is a Cycle Tryout show. There is going to be a huge range of interesting and unusual bikes. There will be bikes for several people and tandems, folding and recumbent bikes. Entry to the Tryout show is free and will be held on June 17, from 10am-4pm in the grounds of Addenbrooke's Hospital.
More British people own a bicycle that ever before and cycling is growing in popularity.
But of the 20 million cycles in the UK many are used only rarely. Meanwhile, on June 20, there will be a free breakfast on offer for people who cycle to work. The meal is part of national Bike2Work day and will be available at Hobb's Pavilion Restaurant on Parker's Piece to those who arrive by bike between 8am-9am. The Cambridge festival is part of a national programme of events organised by 10 cycling organisations and supported by the Department of the Environment, Trade and the Regions.
