5 out of 5 stars Buy it!   July 22, 2008
Mary-kathryn Gray (Rockport, MA)
Just used it this weekend to navigate around VT....worked great! Can't wait to try even more rides!


4 out of 5 stars Very good guide, but limited   February 27, 2008
S. Brown (Las Vegas, NV USA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a high-quality guide with color pictures and/or color maps on every page and a good balance of great road descriptions with turn-by-turn instructions, commingled with information on the places you may wish to look or stay at along the way. Nearly all of the rides that are described look great. As useful a work as this book is, though, it is severely limited by it's size. A ride book covering France could be this short, but one covering a country the size of the USA should describe much more than 31 rides; possibly coming in several volumes. However, you could still be a bug-toothed rider for several years just riding the great roads they have listed so I still recommend it.


3 out of 5 stars No tours in the Midwest and central plains   May 20, 2006

The only tours in the book close to the central US are in Colorado and Texas. There could have been less concentration of tours along the east and west coasts. Buy this book if you ride on the east or west coasts. There are other resources free on the Internet for Texas and Colorado. Arkansas State's web site promotes motorcycle tours with routes and attractions for free. Also this book's tours seem to be from the publisher's collection of the Motorcycle Journeys thought the same regions.
