I still remember the smile that seeing “Col du Buttertubs” text overlay in the 2014 TdF broadcast put on my face. Just such a classic combination of French and a really basic anglo-saxon word.

Oh man. I would go there. You wanna go there? Let’s go there.
That’s what I thought, but that may be biased by proximity.
Perhaps this could be added to the Workout description text, somewhere near the bottom for people who are interested in where the actual ride is?

Great to find the inspriation behind the workouts!
I’ll nominate some climbs from where I grew up in the UK - near the Peak District, some short sharp ones.
Winnats Pass - Winnats Pass - Wikipedia
Gun Hill - Segment Details for Gun Hill - VeloViewer
Mow Cop - “Killer Mile” - Mow Cop - the Killer Mile -
Cat & Fiddle - Cat & Fiddle Hill Climb - Cycling uphill

Searched the forum for this… when I saw it, I assumed they named it Dicks because it’s the Seiler workouts (8 minute intervals at 105%) and FastTalk is always coming after TrainerRoad… or maybe it is Dicks because what else is your reaction after 5x8 @ 105% with 1 minute recovery.
