Put your SOHC palcemark on GoogleEarth

Hi,

Just thought to start a novelty of putting our SOHC palcemarks on googleEarth.

I'll start with mine and looking forward to see the globe...


Cheers,

Jona

Hi,

Open GoggleEarth.

Find your home.  center it on your map display. (zoom in for best result)

On the ruller upscreen there is a yellow pin,  click it.

On the popup window mark your line.(don't forget to link the name to your SOHC)

Right click your mouse when pointing the new place holder and "save as" the file.

You are done.

Now post the KMZ file here....


Cheers.

There are old bikers and there are bold bikers but there are very few old, bold bikers.

Not doing what you can to make your bike ride-able during the best riding months of the year kind of defeats the purpose of owning it in the first place.

When you post your message there is an "+Additional Options.." on low left side.
Click it and you you will have the option to add file.
