Has anyone found a good way to display directions (or even maps) when you're biking to an unfamiliar location?

I have the routine part of my commute down fine, but I freqently find myself going new places for events, etc. I always resort to writing the directions on my hand, sweating them off on the way there, and replacing them for the trip back, but it's kind of a drag. I'd love to be able to access printed out directions or a small map somewhere in my line of sight.

I have both of these. They work for pretty much any size cue sheet I need to use.

I have this:

It's tiny, but holds my maps perfectly. My "cockpit" is already so busy with lights, handlebar bags, cyclometers, etc that I like it's small size.

I just ordered the CueClip! Since I can usually fit my directions on a 2.5"x3" index card, it seems like the perfect solution. I'm super excited to give it a try. Thanks for the responses!
