Chalk Road is a gravel track that runs past Goodwood Racecourse. There are some excellent viewing points along the way, where you can witness some horse racing action for free.

Goodwood is considered one of the most scenic racecourse in the country and is best known for its five-day summer festival, commonly referred to as "Glorious Goodwood".

If you can coincide it with a racing day, you might get to see some (brief) but free horse racing.

Nice steep climb from Charlton that levels off with a few spots overlooking the racecourse.
