Next challenge - we have a weekend coming up !!!!

Come on Phil, out with it man!

OK, I’ll take that as a mandate to set the next challenge. Someone’s got to.

I want to see pictures of your bike next to a sign featuring an unusual, bizarre, rude or suggestive place name. You will be more likely to win if your place name fits all of these descriptions, and if your sign is actually at the place, rather than just pointing to it. Include yourself making an appropriate gesture or face if you can/feel like it/think it will help.

Places like Lost, Wetwang, Pratt’s Bottom. You get the idea.

I’ll review the crop on Monday morning and deliver judgement then.

Now do I go to Brown Willy in Cornwall or Lord Hereford's Knob in Wales this weekend? For those of you in Scotland, I have found a cycle route around The Cock of Arran.

I know him, he's a nice bloke, that Arran

Ah..bugger that's a bit of a boring flat ride to get these from me.... although need some miles in...... be back after Sunday then.....

in the light of my Brazilian guest I thought maybe the second one down was appropriate!

This is as near to a rude word as we get round here

Well out on a little jaunt today, 43 miles and needed a comfort stop........

On.......Peover Lane

Which lead to a place called Peover, where there is a Hall........

But if stopping at the Hall wasn't enough, you could just Peover the Heath

But if all this was a bit confusing - how about Over Peover

Or if Over Peover wasn't good, how about Lower Peover

The locals get upset if pronounced "Pee over" it's actually pronounced "Peever"....

Nice set of villages tucked away near Chelford and Knutsford in Cheshire....

My first ever entry on this thread but this place made me laugh today.

I may well not succeed in posting this photo, in which case, the url is:

[fossyant]

Ohh I like that one.......

 

[Cathryn]

Hehehe....all the funnier because I did get pooed on by a pigeon in Salzburg last Sunday!

If you can somehow upload it properly, you'd be very welcome to do so! I'm incapable for some reason.

Wicked, thanks Longers.

Try this thread for which I am proudly responsible

I was feeling so hopeful I might actually get some entries into this one - the Wheels for Wildlife route map revealed we would be passing COCKLEACH and STARTIFANTS - Where either of them signposted when we got there? NO!!!
