Race from the Base

Get ready for an adrenaline-pumping adventure with Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance's ultra-cycling challenge!

Race from the Base is not just a cycling event - it's a life-saving mission. Every pedal stroke you take will help to raise awareness and funds for your local air ambulance service, supporting critically ill or injured patients.

Taking place on Saturday 7th September, the event has three different distances to choose from. All routes will start and finish at Henstridge Airfield, the home of Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance.
