We're lucky cycling is allowed at all there. Shame about Windsor Great Park: "No cycles -- ridden or otherwise".
The situation in Windsor Great Park is complicated by poor signing. You can legally cycle on most park roads south of the Copper Horse - Sustrans route 4 goes through the park.
Oh right. I don't know the area well at all.
I was thinking of one particular glorious bit: The Long Walk, I think, south of the A308. Why no cycles there? Keeping the off-roading riff raff out, or just because Her Maj doesn't like bikes?
I used to ride through it a lot, was always intrigued by the speed limit; 38mph, was this the speed below which it was not possible to collide with a corgi? ;-)

Surely as long as you try hard it is possible to collide with a corgi at any speed. I guess at lower speeds it is easier to ensure that you hit with the drive side of the bike, thus increasing the chance of inflicting injury with the chain ring!
