Title: The New Google Map of R65er Locations
Post by: Clutch on March 28, 2010, 08:51:11 PM: I seem to recall seeing a U.S. map of R65 riders locations a few years back. Does anyone remember where this is? I recently moved from MO to IA. I'm really hoping to make a few local rallies and was wondering if there's any others here that I might expect to show. I've actually only been to one rally before in my life and that was the Falling Leaf in Potosi, MO a few years ago.

thanks,
Chris

The link to the site, doesn't seem to be working, don't know if it's a temporary problem on not .

Post by: Clutch on March 28, 2010, 09:25:51 PM: Thanks Bob. It isn't working for me either. From the posts on that sticky, it sounds like the Frappr map has been a pain.

Post by: Rob Valdez 79 R65 on March 29, 2010, 01:45:26 AM: There should be a way to do it with Google Maps.
I'll look into it.

I don't know how to make one that is publicly editable.

Let me know if you want on the map. Clutch, let me know if you want me to move your place marker. I chose "mid-Iowa"! ;)

I added everyone that replied to the original frapper map thread, plus msbuck! ;)

I used the information available in your profile.

Get me on the map. Great idea, hopefully I can pass by a few of you this summer on my trip and say hi. A couple of my layovers are in Bulverde, TX (Hill Country) and Hendersonville, NC where my riding partner lives.

Post by: Rob Valdez 79 R65 on March 29, 2010, 04:10:45 PM: There is a way to allow everyone to edit the map, but I have to add permission for each email address.
Not much different than what I am doing already (i.e. manual entry).

But if anyone wants the ability to edit this map, just let me know and I can make it happen.

I sent you a email inviting you to be a collaborator and allowing you to move your marker.

Your description "Right on the corner where Georgia, Florida and the Atlantic Ocean meet." was pretty vague, so I thought I'd let you fix it! :)

I can think of lots more people to put on here, but I guess they'll get to you.

What about making this a sticky thread so it stays at the top?

I had thought of that. I guess I will make it so! ~ R ;)

I wasn't clear. I added everyone that replied to the thread about the Frapper map, not everyone that was on it.
I tried opening it yesterday, and I couldn't get it, either.

Actually I have been on vacation all week, determined to get my R65 back on the road.
I come from the garage every so often to give my back a rest, or to ask a question. Now I fear for the straightness of my frame! (see tech)

And what a beautiful week it has been! Sunny skies and temps in the upper 60s, reaching 70!
I dropped off my leg shields at the painter, Monday.
I hooked up the battery, today! All the lights work! I am bleeding the front brake as I type this, the exhaust system is bolted up and the control cables are all hooked up and the dash is put together.
Now I'm getting ready to put in fresh oil, filter and check the valves. (new to me, engine)

SCREW FISH WORLD! ( ;) )
