Moor trees logo

No to a t-shirt, YES to a tree !

Due to popular demand, it's now possible to support tree planting on Dartmoor by choosing not to receive cycling goodies and instead we will send a donation to moortrees.org. Your selection can be made at online entry and you will also receive a coloured number to indicate your support. Thanks to all the riders who chose this option for their 2024 entry - You've planted 300 trees !


Take a quick look at our Dartmoor Classic video to see how it's run by members of Mid Devon Cycling Club and local volunteers.

The Dartmoor Classic not only donates to charities, we also donate to local sports clubs, schools, villages on route, Dartmoor Search and Rescue, the Air Ambulance plus many more each year. As a rider you can rest assured knowing that part of your entry fee supports Dartmoor National Park and the surrounding area.
