Google Street View trikes to Stonehenge

200x190.jpgGoogle have announced the first UK tourist attractions which will be photographed by their Street View Trike.

Stonehenge topped an online vote as the off-road attraction people most wanted to see appear on Google Maps.

Millennium Stadium, Angel of the North, Loch Ness, Eden Project, Warwick Castle will now all also be peddled around as part of the project.

Luckily for the Google cyclist, no-one suggested they take the 18 stone bike with a mounted Street View camera to the top of Snowdon.
"We've seen a tremendous amount of enthusiasm from British people to get their favourite places onto Street View," said a spokesperson for Google.

"Now it's down to our super fit tryclists to get cracking and photograph these places so that curious historians, students and tourists all over the globe can soon admire the country's heritage and plan their next weekend away."
