Many of you know my wife Denise. She is the ultimate planner and organizer. I, on the other hand, utilize what has become known as the "Schaffer method", which is basically - "I'll worry about it when I have to". When my Friend Steve and I rode across the US, nothing was planned and I remember we bought maps along the way and slept in some pretty interesting places, including a few cemeteries (It was quiet and we didn't need to worry about getting hassled by the locals)
Back to my wife Denise. When she learned of our trip down the coast, she knew that she would need to plan and organize and map our route. She needed to find a tool to help her and she found Google Pedometer. She has planned and routed each of our planned days below. I hope Gary and I don't deviate too much from her route - maybe - just maybe, I'll sleep one night in a cemetery just for old times sake.
