Fun roads somewhere near Boston?

Anyone know of some fun roads to drive somewhere near Boston. The twisty variety.

You're in Boston.. It's the city... Drive 45 minutes west/north/south and you'll find some nice roads.

Storrow is probably the best or the tunnels.. but you can't really speed

Thanks man, I didn't realize that I was in Boston, nor that it was a city. Glad to have this cleared up! (Note I said NEAR Boston, not in Boston)

Thanks, I'll take a look at Jamaica Way... The trees shouldn't be a problem since I wouldn't want to be anywhere near the limit of the car on a public road.

hence why I said to drive 45 minutes out of the city and you'll be on some nice roads... which is NEAR boston.

Jamaica Way is trash, too many pot holes and there's construction debris.

Take the pike a few exits west, there are some smaller highways etc that get pretty empty on most nights.

Go south and hit Nantasket.. not much fast driving but the beach is nice.
If you go south a little further, you can hit the "country side" right before RI. Or even drive into Newport.

Go north for 45 min and you can hit NH, Londonderry area.. nice roads.. lots of enourmous houses to stare at.

Anything within 20 miles of boston, the only "twisty driving" is around potholes, police, and pedestrians.

The section of Memorial before Cambridge Side Galleria after MIT is pretty sweet. I also really enjoy the end of Storrow Drive going west. As for good driving outside of town - there are some sweet roads out neer Carlisle, Acton, etc. But watchout for road bikers (like me) who are out there early mornings! Also, take Exit for 38 off of 95 and go North torwards Wilmington. There are some side roads in there that I test drove a WRX on - those things wip like anything!

Enjoy!
