If it doesnt have dirt on it, its because you're not riding it hard enough

Hi Rick - just the first letter can be used. So your example would be 'D'

Hi I have some cyrillic signs so if it begins with C do I use C as actually a C is an S ?

Also a backwards R which translates to a Y shall I just use the translations?

Hi Lolo, :unsure: I'd have to say C = C and Я = R hope you're ok with this (keeps it simple). You need to claim your top spot back from Viince :laugh:

EDIT Having just looked at the Cyrillic alphabet - I'll allow either use of the letters (your judgement) based on the below... (wikipedia)

In riding the Vale of Aylesbury yesterday I discovered lots of places that are no more than hamlets. They must have evolved around the manor farm and are just houses. No church, no pub, no shop, but more importantly no place name sign entering the place, and no village green for a sign there either. These were all on no through roads off the main highway.

So I've been there, the only evidence is the direction sign as no other signs exist. Can I have that?

Note no through road in the mirror. The hamlet was half a mile down a single track from the main road.

Answers to the above

Viince: Yes, they're fine.

Fordy: Sorry, but no - directional signs can not be used.
