Member Contributer cianciar Posted April 25, 2006 Member Contributer Share Posted April 25, 2006 Just received my Mad Maps order for Smoky Mountains area and I'm very impressed. I'm heading up there for the Hoot in June and this has great rides mapped out and color coded. One unplanned part of my trip is between Nashville and Knoxville. I don't want to stay on the interstate and with this map I won't have to. Best part is that the map makers themselves went out to each road to ensure it is worthwhile. There are some areas marked off that I didn't even notice on my road atlas, and you know my GPS wouldn't bring me to them. I'll be able to test these rides in person come June and I'll give my 2 hundredths of a dollar. By the way, they are making a Florida map as well to be released some time soon. Will be the only map recommending getting off and on the highway to enjoy those florida clove leaf exits :D www.madmaps.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer cianciar Posted April 25, 2006 Author Member Contributer Share Posted April 25, 2006 I figure a mad map of florida will only show routes in the panhandle down to Ocala through to your area. I don't know of any great roads down in South Florida, except for Twenty Mile Bend, and that's only good for finding top speed because of how straight it is.

Member Contributer Bent Posted May 14, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted May 14, 2007 I fully endorse Mad Maps. They're great and worth every penny. They just won't pay me to endorse them yet. Get one if you're ever going in the Smoky's. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soichiro Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Dont be afraid to steer off of the loop routes. I know there are many excellent roads that are on the map but not included in a ride. I like their maps, easy to read, use :thumbsup: . They are veru useful if a person has no idead of the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
