None of Rhode Island's wonderful back roads are listed. Rhode Island is full of some fantastic twisty, hilly, country roads with no traffic (almost) and no cops (not that you would ever speed).
But the RI roads are just too damn short. CC turned me onto some real good backroads up here. Now I follow his advice and stay off the numbered routes as much as possible here and in nearby CT (but CT 49, 201, and 14 can be fun).
