Where: Dorney Lake, Windsor This is the ideal racing venue, with a large, clean lake for swimming and miles of car-free tracks for the cycling and running. Dorney Lake is only minutes from junction 7 of the M4 and has plenty of parking space. It's also an ideal viewing venue, so bring the family and make a day of it.
