Event overview

Swashbuckler On Tour is a triathlon event taking place on 5 July 2026 at Moyles Court School, Ringwood, Hampshire. The race relocates the Swashbuckler format from Buckler’s Hard because suitable high tides were not available. The event uses Ellingham Waterski Lake for the swim, a bike route through the New Forest where wild ponies and horses may be seen, and a run on quiet country roads. Relay entries are available for some distances.
