I would say yes. Besides not stockpiling means you need to get out on another ride and will likely lead you to devise a different route if you've already been through the area.

Okay, I'm going to try and do them in order: So hopefully here are A and B
You can't use villages already posted even if it's a different sign

I haven’t seen that rule, did I miss something?You can't use villages already posted even if it's a different sign
I'm joking @Supersuperleeds has posted the village sign where I live

Only just found this - sounds a wonderful challenge and I am totally up for it. Plus I can knock off A and B within 2 minutes of leaving my house - I live on the edge of a town beginning with A, which directly abuts a village beginning with B, and both have signs next to each other on the main road that's no more than 400 yards from my door!
Looking through the Wikipedia page for my county, we're only missing a Y and a Z, although strangely V is the next hardest to get (just one hamlet, so not even sure it would have a sign - some don't round here if they're only ten or so houses and this is smaller than that). Most of the other letters I would have thought tricky, do seem to have multiple options available, which makes me optimistic.

There is a V in the next county to here. That will likely be a summer outing. It is a fair old ride there and back.

I've also been checking out future letters, really going to struggle with X as I'm sure we all will, while Q may require a jump over the border to Somerset. The rest seem plausible.

Oh, and obviously I ignored "X" completely, because I don't believe there is a town or village in the UK that does begin with X, so no-one could possibly get that. Unless someone can prove otherwise of course... and if they can, I feel a mass CycleChat meetup there is in order!

Come down to Exmoor, the place is flooded with them.
