Different strokes for different folks, or perhaps different strokes for different rides, I guess.
I can certainly see the merits of having a well planned out trip- especially when you are traveling with a group and are backpacking from one locale to another. Nice to have the piece of mind that when you arrive at your destination for the night you will have a room. Eliminates stress and allows you to take your time and enjoy the ride.
Totally different story if you are heading out by yourself or maybe with a bud for the "Sunday Ride" and are going to depart from your own home and return to your own home. Then the "any which way the wind blows" method works fine.
