The apps platypus listed, or osamand. Or if you want to pay Rwgps is great. I'm biased as they pay me but I used it before that. But it's super slick and navigation on mobile is great.
Unless you're doing huge days or a massive ride. Using a phone works great. My old man now never uses his Garmin, just a phone and Rwgps, so its clearly idiot proof.

Haven't found anything on this yet, but realise it may have been covered so excuse me if I'm going over well-trodden ground. What do people use for navigation round here? Dedicated GPS unit? Or some kind of app/smartphone combo? If the former, which one? Garmin Edge 530? Something else? If the latter, which app do you use? Looking to get something for the forthcoming N.France tour and wondering whether I really need to shell out or whether I can get by with Google maps or similar. Cheers.
