hey curtis,
that is fernwood in big sur. it's a private campground i've been going to
for years, though never on a bike and never in summer. i was somewhat
horrified to see what i always thought of as a serene, peaceful and mostly

If Doug writes that book, I'll edit it and lay it out for print.
That could be an interesting app, right? A guide book that could update in real
time based on community feedback. People would probably buy it who would never
actually do the ride.
Photos, nearby tourists, current conditions...

I see your point. The way I've used it is to scratch out a quickie cue
sheet between stops with only the pertinent navigational info to the next
planned stop. That way if I don't feel like taking the detour to the

same. It's a Thermarest Z Lite. It folds up into a block about 20 x 5 x
5. A bit bulky but quite light. It's my daughter's she says it's
comfy. Whenever my inflatable punctures I intend to replace it with
something
Hey Doug,
You're right. Information wise, it's not too off the mark, though it really
only presents one route. What I found infuriating was the half bullet
point/half description directions where the format shifts constantly. Keeping
it simple ie. Left on 2nd right on 3rd etc. would be ideal,
