I mount mine in my inside pocket and just use voice guidance.

I think its safer than peering at a screen.

I'd need to see the screen, I get lost VERY easily.

Any recommendations for a cheap and cheerful sat nav mount?

There's some waterproof ones on ebay at the moment, I can't link as I'm at work, but search for TomTom Start 20 case and it'll pop up. It's bar mounted and supposedly waterproof. I've ordered one (£13) so can let you know what it's like when it turns up.

Figured it's cheaper than a proper RAM mount and plastic bag (which is what my next option would be as I don't always use a tank bag)

I think I've bought the exact same one a few hours ago. It's from China and the cheapest one I could find online.
