Time flies ... After almost one year looking at this beautiful picture again I just now see it is taken near Anus!! Years back I've cycled several times around this magnificent region. Maybe even crossing this road. We camped near Mailly-la-Ville along the river l'Yonne. I will try to proof it by finding old material.

funny name !!

Not that funny once you know that it means "Road to Anus" and that is, in fact, the road that leads to a village called Anus. :)

I don't get why they called their village 'anus'. The word means the same in french as in english.

Yes, it does, but they don't read the "s" of the village name. So it is spelled "anus", but they read it "anû", unlike the "body part" :)
