Tom,

For a lot of folks, it's tough to learn the ins and outs of forum like Bikeforums, as compared to some newer social media styles like Facebook. What you just did -- going into an established discussion and putting in a largely unrelated request -- is called "hijacking" a thread, and it's generally considered not the best way to do things. Making matters even more confusing is that the discussion thread is about a long tour, but it's in a forum about large and/or heavy riders. (I put it here because I'm one of those large-sized riders, and training for a tour is a little different for me than it would be for someone of the more stereotypical cyclist build.)

You'll get better results to your question if you head over to the "Touring" section. You can search for old posts on the topic; and you can start a new thread just about maps. Be sure to let folks know where you're thinking of going -- otherwise you might get info about maps of Australia, Indonesia, South Africa, Europe, etc. Most of the posters on BikeForums seem to be in the US, but we have folks who live and ride all over the world.
