The RAF Association’s global cycling event that connects thousands of riders across the world is back for 2025!

Suitable for everyone from keen cyclists to amateur riders, it is a chance for you to challenge yourself and be part of a cycling event like no other, all while staying connected with the RAF community.

For the first time RAFA Rides 2025 will take place across three RAF stations – Marham, Brize Norton and Leeming as well as the renowned event at Kendrew Barracks. The RAFA Rides season will begin at RAF Marham on Saturday 7 June, followed by Kendrew Barracks on Saturday 14 June, RAF Brize Norton on Saturday 21 June and RAF Leeming on Saturday 28 June. RAFA Rides Your Way, which takes place throughout the month of June 2025, offers participants the most flexibility, allowing teams and individuals to create their own events from wherever they are in the world, choosing their own date, start time, location and distance.

Money raised through RAFA Rides is used to fund the RAF Association’s vital work providing much-needed help and support to thousands in the RAF community. In 2024, the event raised an incredible £150,000!
