Game: Name that road!

[ColinJ]

I like all those arrows. Very clear signal that Spinney does not wish to attempt that road! Mr Spinney has done it, although I'm not sure which way.

It wasn't that bad TBH and I wasn't particulary fit at the time.

It looks pretty hard to me!

Maybe it should be a target for me then. I did the Bealach Na Ba with a friend, but up the shallower side with at least two stops for chocolate!

That is on my list as well but from the hard side on the clockwise loop through Applecross. A friend of mine did it and he said that it was one of his best ever rides.

Okay, here's the next picture ...

Hmm, heather moorland, sea in the distance. Obvious, innit. Devon, Cornwall, Wales, Yorkshire Moors....

Yes - one of those!

Dave - you may have the wrong thread here - unless you are trying to make it really easy guessing the road by having a sign with all the details needed.

P.S. I road past here on Saturday.

Yes I've stuck it in the wrong thread

I've now deleted it and put it in the right thread, thanks, well spotted.

My guess would be the north edge of Exmoor, though I'd need to consult a map to work out which road if it is.

Correct ... Now, where is that map!

 

[briantrumpet]

Road down from Dunkery Hill Gate to Porlock?

Road down from Dunkery Hill Gate to Porlock?

In the direction that the camera is pointing, yes! (I had actually stopped off in Minehead and was heading away from Porlock, as you can see from the bike.)

Your turn!

 

[briantrumpet]

Probably too easy...

 

[ColinJ]

Hmm, er ... I'm working on it, but I bet that @Sea of vapours could identify it!

 

[ColinJ]

Well, I am scouring my OS maps and Street View ... It is within the boundaries of the Yorkshire Dales national park, isn't it? If it isn't then I am looking in the wrong area!

 

[Sea of vapours]

Is it the last bit of the road north of Fountains Fell, heading towards Helwith Bridge, at the top end of Littondale?

 

[ColinJ]

Ha - I found it - Halton Gill!

I could have sworn that I checked it earlier.
