Are you going to allow compound words like 'gudgeon pin' or hyphenated words in general? I guess this might be useful for bike specifics.

Likewise, do we get full points for Bayerische Motoren Werke, etc. :evil:

Now you have got me thinking!

If we can then I'd be tempted to go for Kronreif Trunkenpolz Mattighofen

OK that's three words but all three in KTM could be (possibly) regarded as "bike related"

Kronreif and Trunkenpolz are the founder/owner of KTM and Mattighofen is where they are made in Austria.

If Jimbo will allow it, they're worth 60 points :whistle:

Mind you the nearest Z to me seems to be in Leicestershire (yes it's Zouch) :(

Damn I'm going to have to do it now!

But you know I like a challenge!

Now let me think, what have I got round here:

Knebworth, Royston, Odsey, Norton Green, Rushden, Essendon, Ickleford and Furneaux Pelham.... Yes it's do-able

The Z in Trunkenpolz is my only worry, looks like a trip to Leicestershire is in order :laugh:

To keep it simple I'd like to keep it to towns, cities and villages only.
This way you get to visit nice little out of the way places.

wilky wrote:where are the rules , sorry just want to have a read and couldn't see them.

also many little towns dont have the " Drive carefully sign but just the name can we use just the name sign

wilky
Sorry Wilky missed this one - rules/info here
As for the sign it just needs to be the metal road sign that marks the town etc (not directional sign).
