    Planning a spin up this way in the next couple days. I know a few of the roads up here but some I defo do not. I'll be heading up hills at Ardgillan, the oen our of Balrothery heading up that way, Hollywood (I'm sure it's known as something else locally), both sides of Snowtown in the Naul. Have come across the Balrickard climb in an older thread. Anything I'm missing. I hear Bellewstown is a must but not sure the exact road here. Where do I go from Snowtown, and is there a particular road to attack this climb etc.?

    and I used to fear climbing....

    Man O' War from 3 directions - Balrothery, from the South and past Courtlough. The Nags Head from the 5 Roads

    Cheers, will seek them out. They're all easy enough to add.

    Re Bellewstown - will I come across it going straight from the Naul over Snowtown and straight on thru the cross roads or do I need to head to to Stamullen to hit this climb?

    This is it. Start north, head south.

    Apologies for being pedantic but Snowtown and Bellewstown ain't in NCD. Once you cross the bridge in Naul, you're in the Royal county!
