Touring
For long-distance touring by bicycle, motorcycle, car, or plane,
you can take a GPS receiver along
to help navigate, and to record what you find.
Mark the sights and turns along the way,
calculate when you'll get there,
or decide how practical a side trip is.
There are now products available combining
simplified electronic maps with GPS
to guide you to a destination.
This sort of guide is available on some new cars,
or as an add-on to a personal computer
(DeLorme "TripMate" and others).
Wild Rose gpsMaps are usually more detailed,
less expensive, and more portable than these
GPS/map devices.
They're a bit less interactive, of course.
If you'll be using GPS with a map during your travels,
why not have a custom map to refer to along the way?
If you record the journey with a GPS receiver,
you might enjoy a souvenir map when you get back.
