silly place name rideout

just back from a booze up in amsterdam and all my photos seem to be of me or my mates pointing/sitting/standing next to signs that say "kunt" (scuse my french, or dutch in this case) a lot, i think it meant you 'cant' do this or you 'cant' do that etc i have no idea but you get the drift, little things please little minds!

who wants a really childish rideout called "stop that, its silly" using place names in the vicinity of rosedale, or incorporate them into an existing rideout?

so far weve got "bell end" and "fryup", any more?

its a shame there isnt more time and i wasnt more local, someone with a really perverse sense of humour could have loads of fun making up a geocaching game. what could i leave in bell end i wonder?

Well, there's Great Fryup, Little Fryup, Fryup Hall, Fryup Lodge.....

Oooh & while we're being a little childish, how about 'Cock Heads' on Glaisdale moor

I must admit, 'Bell End' alway's makes me giggle when I pass it!

How about 'Pussy' near the Col du Madeline
