Gedinne Classic Bike Race Weekend 2026

Hi… yes plan to, have to get through the first half of the season with bike and rider in one piece!
It’s a fantastic event and I look forward to having another go at it now that I know my way round.
(Will remember to pack extra coffee and biscuits)
Well that's fabulous. We can establish comms closer to the date of the event, but it would be great for the travelling GSers to say hi.
 
I fancy camping in the town as well, but don't fancy the hours walk each way. Will anyone be using a car from camp site to racing, or is there a shuttle? Hopeful I know, but...
 
Seems it’s a trade off between camping at the circuit or in town.

My plan is to ride the bike to the track, and wait until the evening to have a pint or two in the town.

Indeed, so.

For an amateur event, there is nothing wrong with the campsite at the circuit, per-se; several hundred stay there. The trade off for its proximity to the action on the track, is that the track is a couple of miles or so from the town.
 
has anyone managed to book at the town campsite? The weblink just seems to be a static page. I sent an email last night and not heard back yet, mind you, municipal campsites with gmail email are likely less monitored
 
I have sorted out my life and will be going to the races at Gedinne.

When do you plan on arriving at the campsite in town?

If motorbiking up to the circuit from Gedinne town, don’t forget that the roads will be shut at some point. This is the circuit:

I don’t know what times they close / open the roads. I guess you’ll maybe have to roughly follow the red line and come into the circuit via the field entrance to the circuit campsite, perhaps:

As I’ll have my camper van / bicycle, I plan to pitch-up at the circuit early and camp there. Let’s liaise over meeting up etc.
 
We disembark the ferry in Dieppe early on the Friday, so likely arrive at the camp site around lunch time.

Closer to the time I will set up a Tossers at Gedinne whatsapp group so we can all share the love.
 
I’ve just noticed that the ‘coat hanger’ shape of the circuit, is reminiscent of the old Silverstone, before they emasculated it. Gedinne is a bit less flat though.
