    Agree, visual only. Very, very seldom do I have GPS audio on.

    Indeed.....different strokes........

    When riding, I am watching the traffic and the scenery. I am NOT watching a GPS screen.
    Without the audio prompts I consider a GPS virtually worthless......and somewhat of a safety hazzard.

    The only time I do not want to be notified that I "missed a turn" is when I do that on purpose to take an alternate route and it seems to catch up fairly quickly.

    If I am out just randomly riding with no destination in mind, I leave it shut off until it is time to find my way back home.
    I've been pretty much lost around Atlanta a few times and the Garmin is invaluable when that happens.
