Actually, that's really helpful to know for limping my Touring through the 400k tomorrow -- I was running it 100% on the map screen. I'll switch it to the speedometer screen -- the list of turns I find distracting because it's not identical to the cue sheet and my brain starts trying to treat it like a puzzle rather than concentrating on riding.
