Excellent point that the easiest thing is no computer. That's what I do. If necessary, I'll pull out the GPS on my phone for navigation, but that is rare. I do it because I much prefer the freedom I experience not riding to the computer (I'm too stupid not to ride to the computer, so I got ride of it). I do follow brevity like directions, but never in an actual brevity or organized ride of any kind.
Trust me, it makes a big difference when it is hours after sunset in an unfamiliar area, already beyond the longest distance you have ever done in your life with still 20 miles to go, knowing if you miss a turn or go off the route, you will have to find your way back to exactly the place where you went off course and then finish the prescribed distance, within the time allotted.
It's not "just a long ride." It's not even just a long ride with bureaucracy.
