Green Scheme
We are offering a £5 discount into our Club and Paddock Enclosure for cyclists and a £5 discount for public transport users from Leeds and Harrogate to Ripon.
Ripon Racecourse is committed to reducing the carbon footprint of our racedays. That’s why racing at Yorkshire’s Garden Racecourse is cheaper for those who arrive by bicycle or use public transport to travel to Ripon.

How to get your discount – Cyclists
View paths to Ripon Racecourse from cycle routes: overview map and detail map.
On arrival to the racecourse follow the path around and past the Claro Gates (opposite the house).
Collect your ‘Cyclist token’ from the gate attendant at the Claro Gates and park up your bike at our bike rack point. It is your responsibility to secure your bike and bikes are left at owner’s risk.
Then proceed to turnstiles and hand over your discount token for £5 discount into the Club or Paddock Enclosure.
How to get your discount – Public transport
The bus station in Harrogate is a very short walk from the train station and the number 36 bus from Leeds via Harrogate to Ripon is very regular (every 20 minutes). http://harrogatebus.co.uk/cmsUploads/route/files/36ttMarch2019WEB.pdf
The racecourse provides a shuttle bus from the centre of Ripon to the racecourse and back on racedays (see ‘Shuttle Bus’ page for details).
On arrival at the Club/Paddock turnstiles hand your Leeds/Harrogate – Ripon bus ticket to the attendant who will verify that the date is correct (bus ticket MUST display same date) and apply a £5 discount.
