Details

These are the four motorcycle pocket maps selected from the Complete Blue Ridge Parkway series (7 Maps) which catalogue the highest and most scenic section of America's favorite National Park from just south of the North Carolina / Virginia border to it's southern end near Cherokee at Great Smoky Mountains National Park, then guide you westward to Deals Gap, home of the infamous "Tail of the Dragon". They focus on the hundreds and hundreds of miles of fabulous two lane mountain roads which lie largely undiscovered along the flanks of the Parkway. In addition to the roughly 230 miles (1/2) of the Blue Ridge Parkway covered, almost 2000 miles of additional great mountain rides are identified.

The highest and most scenic sections of the Blue Ridge Parkway are found in North Carolina. There is an amazing number of great two lane motorcycle rides which weave through the mountains which surround it. The motorcycle maps in this bundle give detailed descriptions of each route, all you need to spend weeks and weeks riding a new route every day! I've personally ridden every one of these roads and selected the best based on low traffic volume, scenic beauty, and the fun and challenge of the ride.

This package contains the North Carolina maps, #3, #4, #5, and #6 selected from the Complete Blue Ridge Parkway Series bundle which contains three more maps as it catalogues the northern half of the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia. As so many motorcycle riders focus on the southern end of the parkway, this package is designed just for them.

Value;

These maps are the result of years of work;

-Tens of thousands of miles on the motorcycle actually riding, re-riding, exploring, judging, and selecting the best of every road in the region
- Hundreds of hours studying and researching maps, almanacs, satellite images, GPS data logs, GIS databases, internet sites and forums
- Thousands of dollars on motels, lodging, food, tires, gas, repairs and maintenance

You could buy, read, and take the time to plot out the rides from a series of books for about $120 and get descriptions of most of the well known rides;
or
You could buy standard maps of the Blue Ridge Parkway and each state for about $60 and still not know which roads are worth riding;
or
You could make Google Maps of all these areas, then print them out and store them in a big notebook for free, but you still wouldn't know the roads;
