seeking maps and possible comanion for Spain, France & Italy
I am planning a tour in Spain, France and Italy. and am looking for good physical paper maps that hopefully show less traveled, or and wide shouldered roads or/ and bike ways (paved or gravel.) looking to start late February.

Michelin & IGN (Institut Geographique National) both publish excellent maps for all of France. Touring Club Italiano has good 1:200,000 maps of Italy. Michelin publishes maps of Spain, but the scale, 1:400,000 isn't as detailed as their (or IGN's) maps of France.

^^This^^. I planned and executed a 7 week tour of Andalucia using the Michelin map for the territory. Tried to pick the smallest road, which we shown as white.
