General Discussion / To use paper maps...or the internet while on tour?
« on: May 29, 2017, 06:06:01 pm »I´m middle of the preparation of my bike trip for this summer...planning to go from NY city to Connecticut and then trough upstate New York towards Buffalo.
I must admit, it´s the first time I´ve been riding in north america and I'm asking myself the question, what kind of roadmapping will be the best. I'm used to navigate with paper roadmaps and bicycle-maps....but see a good advantage in having some kind of mobile device with me (iPad etc.) to gather information about the roads, paths and everything else that might become useful on such a trip.
So, my question is: What do you prefer....and, most important, will The area around upstate Newyork provide me with good "enough internet" to navigate?
Thanks - L.
