Planning? Ive planned as far as getting my boxed bike and gear to the airport on time. then upon arrival 1st town I Came to I bought a Good map at a Bookshop.

when I rode off the edge of that one I bought another..

I used to live in a College town, their Geography department has a map library .. There I got to look at maps from around the world.. Big panel maps .

I like Maps Mailed them home to myself, now I have a collection.
