That is very cool.  ahem... other forums.. which I know little about.. but have seen once or twice.. have US Maps with color codes that show up in their signature that indicate what states they've been in.   It's much like the map you see stuck on the back of a motorhome with the "visited states" marked.  I like what you're doing better.  It's got much more detail. 

Do you change colors when you change bikes?

Interesting idea.  I have a GPS that can store trips that I take, kinda like a breadcrumb trail, and can later download them to the computer and plot out.  I'm not sure if it still works, I'll have to give it a try.
