Where near boston ride 15-20 min w/no stop lights/signs/rotaries/intersections?
I'm looking for a road near Boston where I can ride all out with no stopping for 15-20 minutes straight. No stop signs, no big intersections, no stop lights or rotaries. Anyone know of a good road for this? (Oh, and not a ton off potholes either) Preferrably relatively flat or slightly hilly (no huge hills) so I can go back and forth without a huge descent.

Roads around the perimeter of the Blue Hills are only 2 1/2 - 3 miles long.
My bike club(CRW.org) often has 1 or 2 special rides in a month through the area around Cohasset and Scituate. There is also a regular recurring ride on Sundays. The area features very low traffic along stunning coastal roads. There are a few stop signs and intersections along the way.
The Sunday ride in hanson, ma (EVERY SUNDAY UNLESS FOUL WEATHER @ 9 AM) from the Shaw's supermarket goes through a number of intersections. There are some good stretches of quiet roads on non-numbered streets and route 105.
