That's what I do when the route has enough turns to warrant it. I map first with RWGPS then make paper cue sheets. I have a cue sheet clip that wraps around my bars with Velcro.
Attached is a random example for the first day of a cross-PA tour that started in OH. The day's destination was a camping area along a rail-trail. If there is a long climb I might note at what mileage it starts and ends. Sometimes I will also note where services are located along the route. (BC=becomes, TSO=to stay on)
If there are days with few turns I might just make notes re: services, climbs, etc. Off the top of my head I can think of a 74 mile day out west with 3 turns. No navigation aid necessary.
