Oldham

Oldham sits on the edge of the Pennines north of Manchester, with immediate access to moorland climbing and the flat Manchester lowlands just 10km south. Cyclists treat the town as a staging point for serious Peak District and Pennine runs — the Bocholt Sportive (85.4km) and Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride both depart from the wider region. Runners find the moorland above town steep and windswept; the valleys and canal towpaths below offer easier tempo work.
