Cloudside might sound like a lovely name for a road, but it's a tough little berg from either side! Not the longest or steepest in the area but you'll know about it. Great views and a good surface though.

The Roaches Loop

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A great loop that takes in the moorland around The Roaches. Always really quiet, very exposed so best to be ridden when the wind isn't too strong.

View of The Roaches

Highlight • Natural Monument

Great view point of the rocky ridge of Ramshaw Rocks and Hen Cloud. Always full of climbers during the summer months.
