"Hey let's talk about when you are out there bike touring how you find your way around. And now if you are really the intrepid wanderer you just take kind of a highway map and you make your way around the countrysides and just you know with a highway map. A lot of cyclists gravitate though toward certain established routes. For example, one of the routes that I have done is called the Transamerica trail and it is the route that was put together in 1976 to celebrate what was called the bike centennial and riders departed from Virginia and went across to Oregon in a kind of pilgrimage across the country and since that time that route has been traveled by you know any number of freshly minted college graduates, retirees, octogenarians, you name it there have been a lot of people crossing the Transamerica trail. So if that is a tour that appeals to you or if you want to go up the Atlantic Coast or down the West Coast or you want to do the Lewis and Clark Trail or you want to do the, there is a new route, there is a route called the Underground Railroad Route. Then adventure cycling is a good outfit to hook up with because they produce maps of these areas that are extremely detailed and precise and give you exactly you know, kind of what you can expect, the route is highlighted and you get mileages that are very precise. So if you use these maps in concert with a bike computer and increasingly people use these maps in tandem with a cheap yes unit then the likelihood that you will come up to unexpected obstacles is reduced, which I have to say doesn't reduce the adventure of the trip at all."
