That's one thing that puts me off venturing too far. My sense of direction is diabolical.

It was a cycle route, I thought I had missed a turn so gave myself a mile to see of there was a sign...there wasn't so I went back. Later I decided to go a different way into Chipping Sodbury/Yate as it as belting down and I didn't want to mess about with spotting small signs. When I got into the town the people in the bike shop hadn't heard of cycle routes and were no help. They had loads of kids bikes in the window...I thought cycle routes were there for people to explore with families etc on quiet roads/routes. Luckily the people in the tourist info shop had a map and went through the landmarks to explain what I would see on the way back onto the route.

There's some good ways to plan a route, download a file which you can put on your GPS and then head out on different routes. This might help
