    Does anyone else have trouble with the map not displaying? I usually only get the balloons and after a delay messages about map not available at this scale.

    Ummm. "TimetoRide" is in the Gulf of Mexico off the Florida panhandle, and "Fonz" is in the middle of the Atlantic somewhere off the coast of Brazil.

    Robert, I'm not seeing you listed there.

    Another one added to the map.

    Interesting post Sno. Looking at the map (I've been told that paranoia is only bad if there is no reason to be paranoid) kind of give me the willies. CSIS (or the American version - CIA) could have a field day tracking all of us crazy old bikers. So my location is fairly close.

    Sno, or should I say Agent SnoSheriff, what gave you the cool idea?

    OK, guys, I need some help...

    I had my marker in the right location, then somehow I or Google moved it about 75 miles north.

    I can't figure out how to delete it and start over again, or move it back where it's supposed to be.

    Help!!

    Ok, I'm on there, but I got a pink pushpin instead of blue. Anyone know why and/or how I change it?

    It's only pink when you're looking at your own pin. It's blue to the rest of us.

    There, I guess that makes me the furthest north in North America at least. Dang to think part of the UK is further north than this yet remains much warmer.
