    Santa Teresa does indeed have a lollipop, you just can't see it because
    the image is so bad.

    Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics
    German, the lovers French and it is all organized by the Swiss.

    I found the best way to do this was to paste the coordinates into a
    maps.google.com page.

    Thanks!

    By the way, I recently tried one of the lollipops near my home on my K1200.
    Geezus! There's no way I could do it consistently considering the circle is
    20 feet in diameter.

    Think about it this way. Can you do two loops each in both directions
    inside a perfectly circular 20-foot circle painted INSIDE your garage
    without either wheel crossing any lines?


    Note: The average garage is about 26 or 28 feet wide by about 25 feet long
    (according to ask-the-builder.

    Much too long.

    seems to do the same thing ;-)
    Or just 45.10402,-93.18535 copy-paste into the tool of your choice.
    is it my imagination, or does that _not_ point to a keyhole?

    And why are we fascinated with the DMV keyholes?

    Oh, cross-posted to the "nav" group. There must have been a motorcycle
    thread earlier.
