I can read a map and paralell park really well, but I have to admit that piste maps are another matter!

D G Orf, You jumped, at least you tried to mitigate your stereotyping by using the phrase

Well that just leaves the rest of the planet

D G Orf, Im good at map reading! I thought I was good at reversing, until I lost my concentration whilst changing cd and reversed the MG against a gate post

laundryman, I can read maps as long as they are the right way up - you just have to keep rotating them to make sure that they remain in the direction that you are travelling - does that count?

IncogSkiSno, Other clever people can seem to do it with the map book held the right way up - my way does sometimes means that the place names are all written upside down! But it does ensure that I get left or right turns correct - well most of the time anyway!!

bev bish, Mr I has years of map reading under his belt with orienteering etc and he always turns his round . . . whatever works for you. Does anyone else have probs with piste maps or is it just me?

IncogSkiSno, sometimes I find it hard to tell whether a flatish trail is up or down, which is a nuisance for route planning. I think arrows would be a good idea.

Bev, I'm told that it's not about being clever. Apparently it's to do with the way male and femail brains (talking generally) work differently.

So D G Orf, when are you going to split this thread? Or was it just an idle threat from a power crazy moderator?
