As I said before Tink, I think people have to join a Community on Google Earth.

I do know that plotting it and copying as a map will involve horrendous scaling problems.

I presume that it is very difficult to plot progress on a map like this which would of course have to be updated all the time

Tony now in Patara - N36.27511E 029.31994. Thunder and rain, but as he said - he is in a pansiyon tonight so does not really mind 8)

Not too late for sponsors and donations ;)

Just had a message from Tony, he has an injured left foot:( from one of the steep sections but he is soldiering on after a dose of Ibruprofin :)
This evening he has arrived into Kalkan for the night, hopefully he will get some much needed rest, his pin on the map today is N36.26552 E029.40491

Best of luck for tomorrow Tony ;)

Hope he took his GPS out of his pocket, those co-ordinates show him in the middle of a swimming pool.:D

Tony had to rest up today at Kalkan due to his sprained left foot, he is taking anti inflams and has purchased an elastic bandage, hoping to press on tomorrow :)

Tinx, when you speak to him, send him our love and best wishes.  We are following from a very wet and gloomy Cambridge.  Big hugs go to Kalkan...xxx
