People have built smaller versions of race cars since the dawn of motoring. Cyclekarts join that tradition with a formula that focuses on creativity, fun and not getting too serious!
These wonderful little machines bring us all together at events, circuits and car shows up and down the country where they are driven enthusiastically by their creators to entertain themselves and those who marvel at the wayside. Cyclekarts remind us of bygone years where pioneering engineers hand built machines to take racing on the weekends in the pursuit of adventure. These machines attract a diverse range of owners, but do not be fooled into thinking you have to have a degree in engineering to participate, as many pour just as much creativity and resourcefulness into their builds whilst emulating the period in a stylish fashion.
One thing is for sure, if you have a hint of oil running through your veins - once you drive one you will be hooked, they will make you smile and that just has to be good for for the soul.

What is a Cyclekart?
Cyclekarts are compact, lightweight, sports machines, usually hand made by their drivers for the pursuit of classic motoring sporting excitement, styled to resemble race cars from the 1920’s and 1930’s. They are not built to be serious race machines or show cars. Cyclekarts should be an expression of the owner's individual styling interests as well as sharing the pride in building one's own unique looking kart.
