Tips
There's no need to stop at the visitor centre and hop on a bus if you're on a bike — you can ride the tarmac road all the way out towards the needles.
There's a sharp little hairpin to navigate as you near the top though, which can be especially tricky in high winds. You'll be rewarded with magnificent views though, especially if you visit at sunset.November 4, 2021
What more could you want as a cyclist? A nice climb with little car traffic and then finally the reward with the views of the Needles and the cliffs.
