Default What are best motorcycle road maps?

any suggestions on beat motorcycle road maps? i had mad maps for smokey mountains and the florida one. But when i looked for them to plan summer trips to smokeys... they are no where to be found. LOL

trying to decide weather to order them again or something else. I really did like them, just not sure if anything better. i definately will order them again without concern. Like way they show routes and food/bars and places of interest!!

any feedback is welcome.!!!

I bought a set of Butler Motorcycle maps for my trip out west this year. They are the most detailed maps I have seen and they are waterproof. Not sure if they have them for the area you are looking for though.

What did you like about mad maps? Do you want at physical map or digital version to put on a smart phone? Here is another web site with roads and such but if you are looking for physical maps then mad maps are good as well.
