That's part of their *magic*. They use a special pole-mounted camera to get a great view, then apply some very talented Photoshop-ing skills to edit out the photographer below. Pretty neat, huh?

Hum, that's odd. Would you be able to send a screenshot of this bug to todd at localmotion dot org? Glad you like the site otherwise. FYI, we categorize mountain biking trails as either "Unpaved Biking Trails" or "Unpaved Shared Use". You'll find Hinesburg Town Forest here http://trailfinder.info/trail.php?id=30 and lots of others here http://trailfinder.info/search.php?u=1.

Just the places mentioned are closed at the moment, plus the Colchester side of the Causeway from the Law Island Bridge to the end. The rest of the path, including Oakledge Park to the Barge Canal and King Street to Airport Park, are still open and rideable. Enjoy!

Hey Ethan - There is indeed a way to flag issues like this. In Google Maps, just click on the "Report a problem" link at the bottom of the map or directions. A form will pop up and once submitted, Google will follow-up within a month!
You are correct, biking on Church Street is not allowed, and we recently sent a report to Google about it. Keep an eye out for other problems like this (misspelled street names, paths where cars are allowed when they shouldn't be, suggested bike routes that are dangerous, etc). Reporting them improves the map for everyone!
