Stems: They're not just for holding together the front of your bike anymore. I've been doing this a lot for my bicycle explorations around Eau Claire. I write up a little cue sheet and tape it to my stem. It's a simple way to keep track of where you're going if you don't know your way around. Every once in a while I get lost due to lack of a street sign, or a non bicycle-friendly dirt road, but that's what smart phones are for. You just have to hope you get reception when you do get lost.
