You might get satellite imagery, but really, Google is about the best we've got, and it's pretty darned good compared to what we had only 10 years ago.
I agree 100%. Of course, it's a little annoying that it allready is slightly outdated in places, but most roads you're likely to use for biking will be in areas where things don't change much.

I've used it a lot for planning my biking in the Danish contryside. It's almost addictive to use...
