Game: Name that road!

[ColinJ]

That will go quickly!

That will go quickly!

oh aye - it may be an old bike, but down a steep hill it still shifts
the engine is not as good as it once was though, so a bit slow going up


anyways, heres the picture again (keep it on the top of the new page

 

[Marchrider]

Sorry - forgot all about this thread

So a clue - on the horizon in the middle of the picture there is a TV broadcasting mast - it could be broadcasting a 'Talk-On' named TV programme

 

[MontyVeda]

The mast is so obvious now you mention it. We're clearly not paying enough attention

It IS on my laptop screen, but wasn't on my phone's!

 

[Marchrider]

OK - that mast has the same name as the small village I am near - and a cryptic clue to that name could be "Carry on Talking"

Chatton - yet another road with no obvious name:

For a while I thought you might be sending us to Haltwhistle.

[Marchrider]

yep - over to you

(are roads supposed to have a name ?)

 

[Aravis]

(are roads supposed to have a name ?)

Good question. It's always slightly amusing when a road doesn't have a name because it's not actually possible to do as the thread title says! But many of the best roads fall into this category, and when using Google images they have the advantage that the road name doesn't appear in big white letters.

Shorter answer - it doesn't matter at all.

Anyway, here's the next. This one does have a name, but at this point Google doesn't display it. Happy days!

 

[Aravis]

Is this one disappearing down a cave?

It might help if I turn around and go back a few hundred yards:

 

[Aravis]

What's the matter with my clues? Not cheesy enough?

That road looks gorgeous, but not Cheddar Gorgeous!

 

[twentysix by twentyfive]

Not cheesy enough?

Double Gloucester?

 

[Alex321]

Double Gloucester?

I wondered that, but it isn't aged in caves, unlike cheddar.

 

[MontyVeda]

it's not Lancashire
