Enjoy.

Here's a small video I shot when I was there on my RS.

Cheers

Paul,

Thanks for your contribution. Following viewing I can now appreciate why progress may be quite slow and daily mileage limited during a visit:

(a) very twisty roads
(b) lots of four wheel traffic travelling slowly
(c) spectacular scenery

I shall have to "pull my horns in" on daily distance to be travelled.

I did the Corsica trip in September. Two weeks of it. Me on the 1250RS and the GF on her S1000XR. Loved it. No rain, very little 4 wheel traffic holding us up, wild cows on the road in some areas, good food, great beaches.
We stayed in decent hotels everywhere, sometimes for one night sometimes for two.
Was so good that I even considered buying a house there as a holiday home.
Will probably go back for one of our bike trips next year.
