Let's face it, you've taken the time and expense to come ride the fantastic roads in the Appalachian Mountains -

Maybe you're making that once in a lifetime tour down the fabulous Blue Ridge Parkway. Or perhaps you've come to ride the challenging "Tail of the Dragon" at Deal's Gap. You may have come to experience the beauty of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. These are all great reasons to visit the area.

Don't sell yourself short - these mountains are chock full of wonderful rides, but without a ride map to guide you to the best, you'll never find them!

Don't -

Waste time sitting in town traffic... I'll show you how to skirt around towns and stay on the fun roads that keep you moving!
Spend your day riding four lane highways with the semi trucks, RV's, and leaf peeping tourists... I steer you away from them and warn you when it's the only way to go so you can plan ahead!
Panic wondering if you'll ever find a gas station in the middle of nowhere... I show those key gas stations in remote locales so you don't end up stranded!
Ride for 20 miles out a dead end road to nowhere... The mountains are full of roads that lead out into remote coves then become goat trails - not on my maps!
Drive right by scenic waterfalls and never see them... I include points of interest and have an entire map devoted to waterfall touring!
Let rainy weather limit your options for shorter rides.... Don't let an aborted all day tour ruin your options to get out on some great back roads when the weather clears, you'll find plenty of options on these maps!
Sit at the motel wondering where do we ride tomorrow??? Done the Parkway, rode the Dragon, now what? Just follow my maps to those secret roads without worrying about getting lost in the wilds!

Pass up great roads because you worry you'll run out of daylight... I include distance and ride times in my descriptions so you know what lies ahead!

About Our Maps?

Recently I requested a copy of "The Best Rides North of Asheville" for my husband. Him and a very large group of friends who would be riding from Miami FL to Long Island. When I gave him the new map I had received he explained that everyone already had a map but he was appreciative of my intent. After the third day of his trip he called me to tell me that this was the best map he has had. Some of his friends downloaded and printed maps and others bought some. But his was so detailed and showed everything he wanted to see that he couldn't stop raving. The next day he called to brag about his map again. All his friends wanted to know where he had gotten it. So that night I e mailed each of them America Rides Maps web site. Thanks again for the map, it was great!! - Pleschette M., Moriches, N.Y.

I love the map of the Deals Gap area. I've been to the area many times and have always wondered what other rides where available in the area but didn't want to venture off and get lost. Now with my new map I'll be able to plot out full day rides and see areas I haven't seen before, instead of riding the same loop over and over. Thanks for a great map!! - Tony F., Waterford MI

I received your map today. I got the "Three Loops Through The Pisgah Forest" map. The details of the map are very thorough and clear which makes all the difference when traveling. The routes are very understandable, short and to the point - saddletime really comes in handy. This may sound strange but I do appreciate the size being fairly small - perfect for a pocket or the saddle bag. The paper is of nice quality, not cheap or easily torn. Finally, a trip lined out where I don't have to think of every last detail! Cool! - Laura H., Granbury TX

I wanted to let you know that I received The Best Rides South of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. As I pulled the map out of the envelop, I was impressed by the high quality, waterproof paper the map is printed on. I certainly won't be afraid to pack and use this on a motorcycle trip in fear of the weather destroying the map. I liked the size of the folded map - perfect to put into a windshield back or coat pocket. But don't get fooled by the deceptively small, folded size… Opening the map reveals so much more information. On the map side, seeing the 'featured' roads in red makes it easy to picture and follow the routes. And the number of routes on the map is amazing. I certainly didn't expect to see so many 'featured' roads on a single map. Also, dotting the featured roads with gas stations takes the guess work out of figuring out where your next tank is coming from, allowing you to concentrate on the ride instead of the gas gauge. On the other side of the map are the route descriptions. The descriptions contain distance, time and turn-by-turn instructions to follow the routes, as well at road types, traffic patterns and other tidbits of information to make the ride enjoyable. Having the time and distance allows you to combining as many of the 'featured' routes to create your perfect ride. There are also suggested rides - which takes some of the guess work out of creating a ride from scratch. I'm really excited and looking forward to using the map. My father-in-law and I are planning another ride to the Tail of the Dragon again this summer. Now that I have the America Rides map, we're going to have to add a couple days on our trip to try out some new roads. Thanks, - Stefan K, Youngsville, NC

We rode all day on busy Memorial Day weekend over hundreds of miles of fantastic mountain roads from "The Best Rides North of Asheville" and I think we saw two cars! How do you find these great deserted roads! Thanks! - Ash B, Denver, NC

We had a couple of dentists from Canada staying at our motel. They bought a copy of "Three Loops Through The Pisgah Forest". They returned that evening raving about the fantastic roads and amazed they'd seen only a couple of cars all day. It really made their trip and they're looking forward to coming back again! - Gabi @ the Holiday Motel, Maggie Valley, NC
