Looking for fun roads to drive in RI

Does anyone have a list of fun roads to drive in RI? I'm looking for tight winding roads like Iron Mine Hill or Tower Hill, but longer. These roads are nice, but way too short.

Thanks.

i've found that most roads in RI that are somewhat good to drive on (lots of turns and such) are always in Residential areas with hidden driveways... it sucks.. but I will let other people chip in

What about southern MA, around Attleboro? I don't want to have to drive up to NH or ME. My new suspension is itching for some miles before the car goes into the garage for the winter.

i meant the closest windy roads are off 95 around the CT/RI border... maybe around exit 2. But like I said there are lots of houses at places

Join the bmw cca and do the auto-x and track days. You can also go down to the drag strip. Too many people and cars on the roads.
