I'd like to know what's been lost in translation and how it is really quite sensible in Dutch.

Like the Swedish brand Crapp, or Bums bread on the German/Dutch border. A mate of mine lived in |Spain, with a 4x4 which model name translated in Spanish to a slang term for a self abusive practice. Bit of a branding error in Japan. Anyone recall Colt Starion car (did they really mean Stallion?).
 
An Iranian cycling team: Pishgaman-Giant Team

Whatever next! From Kazakhstan: Vino 4ever

From the UAE. Hope the cyclists are meant to do both!
Skydive Dubai Pro Cycling

An Australian team, obviously: African Wildlife Safaris Cycling Team


Baby Dump is best, though. :okay:
 
Mrs A and I are amused by the Giant Alpecin team name. We are reasonably convinced that a Giant Alpecin is a kind of large rodent. Sort of a cross between a capybara and a hare. A big lollopy thing with a stupid grin on its face. Imagine one galloping through the fields alongside the peloton.
With really silky hair.
 
I am puzzled by the whole idea of caffeine shampoo. Caffeine is a stimulant - right? But hair is dead. Can't see a lot of point in stimulating necrotised keratinised epidermis. Not that I have much of it to stimulate, to be honest.

Insanity Prawn Boy
I'd forgotten about Roompot Oranje Peloton - great name, but still possibly not as good as Babydump
