New BT Idea: Plotting Users on Map to Find Training Buddies

If people “opt in” it’s ok. 

I already have my location and email available to other members. 

Some of this can already be discerned from stored routes. By looking at the various bike and run routes I created, someone could narrow my home to 4 blocks in Peoria, Logan, or Fayetteville. Not quite as accurate at Strava, but very close. (This is something many BT’ers should pay attention to). 

I just noticed this thread and will chime in, hope it's not too late. 

I don't like this idea.  I would have to contact each person directly?  

With the forum it was SO easy.  Just create a thread, e.g. "Meet up for Open Water Swim this weekend?"  Everyone could see the thread and respond, or not, without being confronted directly.    Also if I was interested, but nervous to meet 1:1, I might change my mind if I saw that other people I knew were going.   If I met people l like in a group, then I could keep in contact with them directly.  I still have so many friends from the old BT State Forum, no new ones. 

Sorry to hold onto a grudge for this long, but this still confuses me.  

I like it, on an "opt in" basis.
