Hilarious! Wonder who got to name them that? Obviously a cyclist or a runner!

Those are too funny! Seeing your thread title reminds me of the day I had my wisdom teeth out and my mom was driving me home while I was still pretty loopy from the sedation. The meds also had the side effect of making me really nauseous so I was dry-heaving into a ziploc bag at various points during the ride. At one such point we were taking a turn and I looked up and saw a street sign that read "Hurley Lane"! Not that funny by itself, but the timing was priceless!!

The Tombstone name I liked best- at the end of a pretty good climb: Perseverance Road.

We have a Hardscrabble Road out our way.
It occurred to me with that road - and the same goes for all of yours - that the roads would've had very different names had they been named by the people who lived at the bottom.
