I once saw a cue sheet like this somewhere online, so I figured I’d give it a go for tomorrow’s ride. I’m hoping that instead of the MOT<\/a>\u00a0I’ll be able to take dirt roads for a round-about path to my parents’ house in Richmond, and this illustrates the roads that I’m not already familiar with.<\/p>\n

Instead of a flat page and some manner of holder this is a basic paper loop around the bars, listing turns one after another. It can then be hand-rotated to advance the list. I currently list the name of the road, which direction I should be going on it, and if it’s at the end of the previous road (a T intersection<\/a>). Next time I may make the font smaller, better clarify the intersection type, and note the distance on each road.<\/p>\n

While I could have put a cue sheet into my Garmin bike computer it takes a fair bit longer than printing a basic note, and when I last tried it with a slightly older Garmin (Edge 500 vs. my current 510) it wasn’t the most reliable, so I’m hesitant to try it again. The paper band has the limitation of font and bar size dictating the upper capacity limits, it’s not really waterproof (laser printing only goes so far), and it could get torn off. But it’s also super-easy to do.<\/p>\n

Hopefully the ride will go as planned and the cue sheet will be a positive contribution.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:<\/strong> This worked out very well.<\/a> I’ll be using this cue sheet mounting technique in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
