Routes & Maps FAQs
September 11, 2014
As you might imagine, we get a fairly steady stream of map and route related questions. Usually they are variations on the same themes:
Which direction should I travel?
Why isn't the north arrow always up?
When should I ride the TransAm/Southern Tier/Pacific Coast/any route?
How do I get from point A to point B on my bike?
When should I buy my maps?
In order to help potential bicycle travelers answer these questions for themselves (saving the really tricky ones for us!), we compiled a list of the most often made queries and posted them with answers on the Routes & Maps Frequently Asked Questions page.

I'm searching your site for an answer to what is likely a FAQ regarding which direction is best wind wise for a fall Atlantic coast tour? I think I've seen it before but can't find it now. Thanks
