Haha. I like going up the Alpe d'Huez on google streetview. You see a lot of cyclists resting on the side of the road trying to climb it.

I passed a google street view car last fall and keep googling the location, but it shows an image from two years ago. I'm hoping I'll show up when they update it.

Nice!

The closest I came was opening the door to leave my house. I was kind of a shadowy figure.

My bike - locked up outside - got caught on Street View, though!

I haven’t been captured by a Google Street View camera, but the satellite pics on Google Earth show me mowing my back yard.

Streetview nabbed our VW Westy parked off the alley behind our old place, but no humans on bikes.

I got picked up using a blower to get grass out of the driveway after mowing the lawn.

I wasn't caught that well or even on street view but I'm pretty sure it was me on satellite in our local cemetery. I ride there a lot as it is big and varied terrain and always plowed and clean. My wife calls it sweating with the dead.

I'm sure they appreciate someone using their time here appropriately!

I lived at a place almost ten years ago, my vehicles still show up when using street view by that house.

A few years ago our shipping clerk died. For a long time street view still showed his truck parked outside the building. Kinda spooky.
