BigLenny Posted July 8, 2016 #1 Posted July 8, 2016 Hey Gang, 4 years ago, my beautiful bride and I went on a 2 week ride out west to Northern NM, CO, UT, and AZ. during that trip we rode the Million Dollar Highway from Montrose down to Durango. As you all know, that trip goes through a neat little town called Ouray. We stopped in OUray so my wife could spend about an hour or so going through the shops. Well, today at lunch, I had this daydreaming thing that made me yearn for another trip out that way, so I got on Google Maps and started looking at routes and checking out street views of different areas. I did a street view of Ouray, and low and behold, sitting right there is our red and black RSTD with my our red and black jackets laying over the t-bag and our helmets sitting in the seats! What are the chances pf that??? I never saw a Google car go by when we were there 4 years ago, but apparently one did. Crazy feeling to see my bike sitting there on the street view. See link. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.0223476,-107.6715276,3a,44.1y,149.21h,89.52t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sy-vbvtBvrgAWzQvN-0oayw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en

GAWildKat Posted July 9, 2016 #6 Posted July 9, 2016 I've had this happen to me so many times locally it's a running joke that if the google maps car is in town it's going to find me while I'm out on errands. Unfortunately, by the time google updates the maps feed to the latest encounter, they edit or update the maps feed to remove the car so I can't go hey look, I'm caught again.

ragtop69gs Posted July 10, 2016 #8 Posted July 10, 2016 The Google car caught us in a Roadside rest stop just north of glacier park. Never did see us in the street view. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Freebird Posted July 13, 2016 #22 Posted July 13, 2016 I don't think you can?? Sure you can. Just take a screen shot. I can do it if you don't know how.
Condor Posted July 13, 2016 #24 Posted July 13, 2016 Sure you can. Just take a screen shot. I can do it if you don't know how. I tried that, and when I went to see what I got it was black, not blank, but black. The info boxes were there, but nothing else. Thanks for posting the pic in the following... Got it!! Maybe it has something to do with Chrome??
