Great question!
So at first, I start with a "potential" route I want to explore. This route is a derivative of the research from the internet, paper maps and everything I have at hand.
When I'm actually on the route I encounter multiple setbacks like legality issues, road conditions (especially off-road), vegetation or any other issue.
So when I'm actually in the area I use locals at campsites, cafes or restaurants to guide me to better-suited roads.
So the fact is, it's a more like boots on the ground to find the best routes.
