Hey guys, I'm going to be attempting the South Downs Way route with a couple of friends in about a months time and could really do without spending the sixty odd quid on the OS maps that will cover the route.
Just wondering whether any of you guys have done it and what maps you used, if any. Or indeed how easy it is to navigate without maps. I know the Section around Brighton pretty well and if the rest of it is anything like it is here, then we shouldn't really need a map at all, but just in case, what areas would you recommend getting maps for and what maps to use?

Thanks for any advice

Not done it myself (though I want to this summer), you may find this useful though http://www.bikedowns.co.uk/

Or you could aquire memory map and maps from a reputable torrent site, 23gb download but you can always prioritise the maps you need.

Cheers guys. We're looking to do it over the course of a couple of days and will hopefully be wild camping, probably won't be taking a tent, maybe just a basher kit, but do you have any other suggestions about what kit to take/what food to eat?

Cheers
