I love this CGonaB site. I used it several times myself including for my similarly titled "Go west (not so young) man" diary documenting my XCountry ride in 2007. I didn't own a cell phone then (did they even exist then?). I used paper maps and had a small laptop to make my diary entries. I generally did them sitting outside town libraries (they were usually closed in the evenings when I arrived in towns) and most internet sites then were non-password and publicly accessible. I haven't made any documented treks since 2012 but still send the website money. You can see my "Go west..." diary here:
