[RBW] Re: RBW Owners Google Map
Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far ... and please let
others know about it. Likewise, there are more Riv dealers to be
added, so please ask them if they are interested.
While I guess this question is ultimately up to our fearless
leader ... Should a link to this map appear on the RBW Owners Bunch
link page?

[RBW] Re: RBW Owners Google Map
Yes, the different placement markers are really just my own fine- tuning. You can change the type of Placement Marker by clicking on it when in the editing window (aka writing the content of the marker.) Basically, I made the Golden House = RBW HQ The Golden Wrench = Riv Dealers Green Bikes = Rivendells free ranging And if there are other landmark, items, or whatnot that should be added, please just make a suggestion.
