I'm also working on a web site for the ride. It probably won't help with keeping up with day to day updates. Kzr will be best for that. But it will provide an overview for new comers.

Very nice website. I think it does the relay justice. In my opinion I think it needs a bikes that

made the trip section. I remember getting into this all I did was check out everyones bikes to get

ideas.

Wow Topper that's great!
I wonder if we could get Stein to add a link to the KZR toolbar as a short cut. Then everyone will see it and find out about the ride.

Welcome to KZR, Tommy. Your not too late. Post in the East Coast Leg thread to get aquainted with the route and participants there. The flag is still in central Florida working its way north. You should be able to get included up north no problem.

You are very talented at web design Topper. Very well thought out. Very nice Web Page! Maybe you can add a link that explains how a user can add their pin to the Google map.

Thanks for the kind words on the website. Hopefully this is just the beginning. I'm considering adding a blog where any rider who wants can post about their portion of the ride. And I really like the idea of a list of bikes that made the ride.

Great job on the relay website!!!!!!!!! Would it be possible to somehow show where the flag is and who has it as it travels around from place to place? Ed

I'd love to do something where we show exactly (or almost exactly) where the ride is, but I don't think I'd be able to keep up with that alone. Maybe we could make another google map with just a single "you are here" pin. Then have the coordinator for each leg responsible for making sure it's kept up to date.

I could embed that map somewhere in the site.
