temesvar Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Am sure I can use some help here. Planing a trip, to me is like getting from point A to point B. No problem there, have a map and gps. The thing is, i miss so much that is in between. Can anyone suggest a site that would help out on planning a trip? Thank You and safe riding! Link to comment
Joe Frickin' Friday Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 www.roadsideamerica.com Pretty much anytime I'm going somewhere, I'll head to Roadside America and look up interesting stuff to see at my destination or enroute. Most of it is cheesy and/or funny stuff, but there are some very cool things here and there as well. Link to comment

Bayou Red Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I like Road Trippers. They have a lot of interesting and useful information, and you can pick and choose how much or how far off the track you want it. Tony Link to comment
waynerd Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 What Mitch said...my travel bible. My kids just went up to Bozeman to visit family and I made sure they checked out the two-story outhouse and some great yard sculptures. Link to comment

RRPhotog Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I am knew here but this something I can contribute to. I have been planning my summer trips for the last few months. I use a app called in Route and Google maps. It is pretty easy to use and lay out routes that do not follow the recommended GPS path. The full version has turn by turn guidance and it will export gpx files. I use Google maps when I want to do trips with overlays or combine several different routes. You can usually find people who have created maps that locate points of interest. For example I often overlay a map of Diners Drive insurance and Dives to find fun food. Or a map of lighthouses. The drag able routes in GM makes route planning pretty easy. Link to comment
