Looking at a map and writing down some basic directions in case memory fails is still better. I normally carry my cell in a baggie in my jersey pocket, after one ride I went back to the old way. Sorry, Mom, thanks for the thoughtful gift, but that was a waste of money.

(There's nothing wrong with getting lost, anyway.)
