  1. [font=Arial]Does anyone have any experience using GPS systems on their bikes?[/font]

    [font=Arial]I have been looking at some of the systems available but am not sure if they are worth the bother, I can read a map and use a compass, but I am a man and would prefer not too so inevitably I get lost, well more topographically challenge than lost. You know should have stopped 20 minutes ago and checked but instinct knew better and I followed my instinct and now on the bank of the gorge should I turn left or right for the nearest bridge?[/font]

    [font=Arial]I guess you get the picture![/font]

    [font=Arial] [/font]

    [font=Arial]So will a Garmin help me?[/font]

    [font=Arial] [/font]

    [font=Arial]Are they worth the hassle?[/font]

    [font=Arial] [/font]

    [font=Arial]As I am in the UK should I buy a cheep one from the US or should I spend more money and get a European one?[/font]

    [font=Arial] [/font]

    [font=Arial]Any help gratefully appreciated.[/font]

  2. I have a Garmin Venture, but it does not have built in maps.....the next model up does. There are a few people in our cycling club that use them, and seem satisfied. I bought mine for Geocaching a few years ago.
