See my comment below. You can also use Google maps and select the bike option and then print off. I would suggest, as someone suggested to me, you check the aerial view of the maps to see what type of roads you'll be riding on.
Talking to locals also has a huge advantage.

Plus, each State D.O.T. publishes Maps , Write them and they will mail you one.
Visitor centers will usually have them too. Often close to (or right at) the state lines. Sometimes they're on the freeways. If so jump on to go to the visitor center and then get off at the next exit. This way you can pick them up as needed and throw them away. Tear out the section of the state map you need and toss the rest. Most maps will have larger maps of the bigger cities. Those are handy too.
