How do you guys do it? I already know I want to start in Oregon and ride south through cali, once I hit the bottom of Cali I'll then decide if I want to ride east through Arizona and New Mexico back home or grab a bus. I just can't pick a route, I want to see as much as I can and time is a non-factor. Money on the other hand, is. I have no problem living on bare essentials and always camping so I think I can keep it below 15 bucks a day.

Like I said tho I can't plan my route ahead of time, surely I shouldn't just take off with no real route right? I want to see all I can but I don't really know how to find the stuff I want to see before I'm already there y'know? One thing I know forsure is that I don't want a schedule other than managing to roll into a town just in time to get more food and water. If I take 3 days longer to get somewhere it doesn't matter, the journey isn't about reaching the destination to me, it's about being on the journey.

I'm probably thinking too much...
