Your chance to ride in Windsor Great Park and the Deer Park on sandy grass tracks. The ride passes through lots of woods and open parkland with some great views of Windsor Castle.

URGENT NOTICE - WINDSOR CAPITATION FEE
Please can all riders add a £5 capitation fee to your ride entry fee. I'm sorry we somehow forgot to mention it this year in the special instructions.
If you have already posted your entry to Kit Holdsworth please send her £5 and details of your name and class you entered , it helps cover the use of the park and tracks maintained by the crown estate. The ride is entirely within The Great Park and Deer Park which is usually only allowed by those who have a yearly permit. Anyone who manages to miss paying their capitation fee will be asked to pay on the day.
