hey guys, i know for myself i have local roads near me that are newly paved, always car and radar gun free. I'd love to share them with everyone, and i hope everyone will share some of theirs. For organization i've posted the route as seen from a map (mapquest.com) and attached the map as a jpeg. Also i've included the driving directions link if anyone ever wants to find a specific route. My hope is that we can share safe, fun, and beautiful driving routes with each other, so that whenever one of us is in a part of state other than our own, we have something to look forward to! Here's one of my routes, please contriute your own.

Welcome to Quinobequin Rd. in Newton, MA. The stretch is just over a mile, newly paved, and i've never seen any sort of cruiser on it. Ever. There are people walking dogs and such, but usually only in the afternoon. On the drive you'll see the charles river to your right, it's really nice and i hope you have the chance to enjoy it some time.

Great idea! I will check that road out. I am in dire need of good driving roads in the Waltham area.

For those out west, I don't have a good map for you, but the Reservoir St in Holden, MA (just north of Worcester) is a whole ton of fun. Google Map link. What I usually do is take Bailey Rd from Main St to Reservoir St. Baily Rd is nice and twisty, and is only half residential (don't want to speed by houses).

 

This is actually a really good idea... maybe I can get one going for MD...

 

I tried that route and I have to say its awesome.

As for the route I sometimes drive on, its in southbridge, MA. You can access the road from I-84 -> rte 20 east -> route 169 towards southbridge -> turn right from route 169 when you see the southbridge airport sign (small aeroplane sign on green background). This initial section has houses and theres no sort of shoulder - so you want to be a little careful. Follow Berry Corner Rd. Ayers Rd. Pleasant St., until you hit the town of southbridge (rte 131).

Also, this road has upslopes with a turn at the top and things of that nature - so its easier at daytime, otherwise you might run into some trees.

 

something tells me all these routes are going to be patrolled soon
