Another awesome video. I know it takes a lot of your time doing this! Do all these turns show up on your bike computer? Or are you kind of following the paper map? You might have hit that in the Q and A and I missed it. I have a basic Garmin computer as I only ride local…I have not grasped the concept of following a route on the Garmin yet….might have to get a better bike computer. Thanks again.
@@danielprice9997 Thanks for watching, it’s been a fun labor of love putting these together and if it inspires someone to go out and try a long trip on their bike, all the better. On navigation, I can’t recommend the Adventure Cycling Association maps enough. I’d never skimp on navigation on a long trip like this, plus the money you spend goes to a great cause. I used the ACA Northern Tier map set on my ride and I spend a little extra to get the electronic files that you can load up in your bike GPS. I think pretty much all Garmin Units can use GPX files for guidance. I used the bike computer for primary guidance while I was riding, and I backed up what I saw with the paper maps. The paper maps are really great for trip planning since they include all the info you need about lodging, camping, resupply etc., all right there. No need to do any additional research. Later on in the series, I go off route at Buffalo and use Google Maps for bikes, and you’ll get an idea on the issues there for sure. Thanks for watching. More coming up soon.
Wonderful! Thanks Dan!
I loved the still photos at the end!
