Questions

Can I use MotoCurve with a Butler map?
Yes. Many riders pick a road off a paper map, then drop a via point on it in MotoCurve so the route rides it, with voice navigation to get there and back.
Is there a free alternative to Butler Maps?
MotoCurve is free and rates every road by how curvy it is, so it finds twisty roads anywhere in North America, not only on the roads a paper map covers.
