AMA Ride Guide to America: Favorite Motorcycle Tours in the USA (American Motorcyclist Association Ride Guide)

Customer Reviews:

No tours in the Midwest and central plains

By D. Abbotson - May 19, 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.

Very good guide, but limited

By S. Brown "Mac User" - February 27, 2008

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.

Pretty good, but could have been much better

By Palmer3571 - April 25, 2011

Have just completed reading this book. This book describes some interesting rides, but it was frustrating to read because the so-called maps have almost nothing to do with the rides. Many times you cannot even locate the starting point on the map. I do give the authors points for describing the roads in some detail - how twisty, road surface, etc. I do not want to ride on gravel, so i appreciate the heads-up. The book has a decent amount of pictures to go along with the ride articles.
Overall, a worthwhile read as an aid to planning your own trips.
