Game: Name that road!

[ColinJ]

"in person" could mean "right there before my eyes", so I'm guessing in Todmorden.

I wasn't talking about what my eyes could see...

I literally meant that most forum members would not have seen the road in person!

(I'll leave it a bit longer for you to work out what I am getting at since it is a pretty big clue.)

Did you mean to use the word literally as that would remove any possibility of a cryptic or anagram clue?

I literally meant 'literally'! Or in case that still makes you suspicious - YES!

I am off to the confused .com website….

Ok... I was hoping that someone would see what I was getting at but I will nudge you in the right direction!

It goes without saying that most cyclists from round the UK (and beyond) would not have seen a particular road in West Yorkshire in person, but I still felt that saying it would help.

Aaargh... I literally mean 'in person'!

Why am I telling most people in a bunch of keen cyclists that they will not have seen a West Yorkshire road IN PERSON when it is bleedin' obvious that they won't have?

I have never seen the Grand Canyon in person.
I have never seen the Taj Mahal in person.
I have never seen the Eiffel Tower in person.
I have never seen Mount Everest in person.

I have seen them; I haven't seen them IN PERSON!

Has it been on telly?

 

[Ming the Merciless]

I have never seen the Taj Mahal in person.
I have never seen the Eiffel Tower in person.
I have never seen Mount Everest in person.

I have, and in the last two cases I have cycled there.

You're missing out... the grand canyon is better than all of those put together... according to my mum.

But we might have seen it not in person. Like it might be Brookside Close
