Posting from 25,000 feet, on my way to Manchester NH where I'll find the cheapest room and hopefully a bar, before collecting our 1974 BMW M2 in the morning.

The car is up in New Hampshire getting the motor rebuilt, and a nice burble-y exhaust added, my boss wants me to "shake it down" on the way back to NYC. Yes, I think I can oblige.

BUT I need your help; where can I find some good twisties (preferably no houses, no pedestrians, up-down-and-around kind of roads) south of Manchester?

Thanks in advance!

Check the app "Greatest Drive". It's never steered me wrong and most roads have notes about the situation around the road as well.

Shoot, wish I had seen this earlier. Any road heading west from Manchester towards VT would work, then you pick up I-91 south.

Do not speed in CT. Just don't.
