GPS's are a really good, no doubt about that. But I do prefer a map. It gives me the big picture.

I study a map before a trip and use the GPS mostly to find addresses and specific locations or to find a detour. I am gifted with a great sense of direction. I have loaded topography maps into my GPS for off pavement riding. That works well.

Same here but I'm known for heading down roads that aren't in the original plan or aren't really detours in the true sense, but detours in my mind. I see a road that looks interesting and I head off down it. The GPS then becomes my map while exploring and someone is running low on pusholine and needs to find a gas station pretty quick.
