I thought it would be fun to create a map with the locations of RE enthusiasts.

Pin your location on the map, along with your username and any bike details if you like, would be interesting to see where people live and where the highest concentration of Enfields are thumping around.

You will need a Google or gmail account to add your location but these are very quick to set up if you don't already have one.

Then click on the link below to get started:
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=206740408861669440603.0004c2d1ee8bcc6784de9&msa=0&ll=25.799891,-79.002686&spn=4.944427,10.821533

Directions for once you are signed in to the map:
- Click the Edit Button above.
- Move the map until you find your area.
- Zoom in if necessary using the + and - buttons
- Select the pin icon at the top of the page
- Click your location
- Add your username as the title and what bike/s you have as the description (optional)
- Select the icon you would like to use by clicking the icon on the top right of the popup box
- Click OK and then hit the Done button on the left hand side of the page and you should be good to go!
- If you made a mistake you can click your pin again and edit or select Delete at the bottom of the popup.

If anyone has any issues let me know where you are and any details you want to add and I'll do it for you.

We used to have a Forum Member map built into the Forum but I can't find it at the moment.

How about posting the map thingy in all the other forums? Not everyone reads this forum.

Other boards on this forum or other forum sites? What other forums are people using out of curiosity?
