^ my missus has used the string on an OS map for years and swears by it :(
you should try your garmin when it when its -5 deg C and you are descending col d'iseran in a blizzard :(
i can't follow my garmin at all, the screen is too small.. i'd need an ipad size display to follow anything.. getting too old see.
i prefer to enjoy the scenery, a missed turn always bring a surprise.. we were in deepest chilterns once, asked a local farmer what we'd find if we headed up a small track road.. he paused for a bit and said 'there be dead cyclists up there'.. it was indeed a dead end road to a winery.
