Satellite navigation systems are great for getting the operator from point x to point y clinically, but you will miss the journey......if you are doing a two week tour why care where you start or finish?

I'm heading down through Italy and across to Greece in the summer so I'm expecting lots of sun

I use a car gps on the bike too but visibility in the sun is very poor.
Some say these bike specific devices are better in the sun and some say they're no better. Don't think I want to gamble over 300 notes on that.

I see TomTom are to launch a new biker GPS

Memories of that sickening feeling, miles from anywhere, on your own, praying that if you leave it for a while all will be well next time you try.

It's back again.
