I got mine ordered
map is printed on the heaviest grade available for map making. same grade national geographic specs. at times it's hard for us to get as it's not used as much as most others use the cheaper thinner stuff.
enjoy!
Adding a bit more info to what Bill said about map quality...
The hill country map's physical dimensions should be similar to their maps offered for the rocky mountain states,southern Cali & the WA Back Country Dirt Roads.....Roughly 27" x 38" unfolded...4" x 9" folded. (measured from my set of Butler Maps)
...That being said...Remember,most of the other Butler maps cover a whole state's roads....This Texas Hill Country map is concentrating on a good bit smaller area so the detail of the smallest county roads whether paved or not should stand out rather well....ya think?
Ordered the map.
Thought there was a TWT discount, but rechecked and noticed it was for 2 maps; certainly do not need 2 and too much hassle to get someone interested.
Anyway, looking forward to get it.

Ok, someone mentioned a discount. News to me. Please point to the proper post of give details...
purchase 2-3 maps and get free shipping with code: TWT
that should work but if not: advrider does.
Wow, quick response.
That's any 2 or 3 maps, or 2 or 3 copies of the Texas map?

I got my copy from Scott today....MAN this thing looks great.
MITCHELL'S CYCLE SPORTS IN WACO has a few of the Texas Hill Country maps available.
Tim & Susan aslso have a couple of neon 3/4 length Fly jackets that can be bought RIGHT.....Ordered for a regular customer who ended up buying a Firstgear Kilimanjaro instead.The jackets are a large & an X large solid shell,good armor,light weight. Similar fit to a Firstgear or Tour Master(maybe just a bit snugger in the belly,but fits me fine) Reg $199 for $139 BUT ONLY THRU SATURDAY 6-11-11. They'll be sending them back to the supplier after that.
They also have a couple of Fly Dual Sport helmets in neon too (a la Shoei Hornet).....but try em on FIRST(liner/shell fit is kinda different) Same deal applies.Ask about the price. I don't kno.....
Are there any plans for Texas state maps? I've yearned for some time now for something like 4 different sectional maps of Texas that could have enough detail for smaller/dirt roads and yet still fit in a tankbag window (atlases with the pages torn out don't work so well for me). I've always admired the British Ordinance Survey maps, mainly due to their varying scales.
I can't imagine even 5 or 6 sectional maps that would have enough detail to show all the small paved & gravel county roads in Texas. I think it would be more doable to have maps for specific areas where most folks are gonna want to ride...like...
Hill Country South (already done)
Hill Country North (possibility)
Big Bend/Ft Davis/Marathon area
Amarillo/Panhandle/Caprock
East Texas North
East Tx South
Well, I hope they do a HC north, BB metro and maybe something in the east. But there is some good riding in far-far northeast Texas (AKA Arkansas) that needs some mapping as well.
The BB map may not be needed as the numbers of paved roads are low. When you only have a few roads, a map really isn't needed.
Got to see one of these for the first time last week. Very nice maps. Placed our stocking order on the spot. So, not hustling in on their direct business, order direct if you like. But if you are in the SA area and want to check one out in person, Moto Liberty San Antonio will be stocking them starting sometime later this week when our order arrives. They get a thumbs up from us!
Has anyone here seen the WABDR video? Any reviews?
