OK, so you did goof around the place now for quiet a while. Highly time to get more seriouse now. Here are some things one shouldn’t miss in Corsica:

See the black beach of Nonza…

… support local dealership and purchase anything in a shop if it looks that cool as this one…

Cooltours · 07-12-2007, 12:49 AM

…if you’re femal, go to Calvi for one day and one night. Calvi’s the homebase of the French "Forreign Legion" and you might have a great time there getting spoiled as spoiled as one can be.

I'm in love with Corsica. I've been over there more than 10 times, I spent most of my summer in Porticcio when I was young.

I think my best day in corsica was the day I went to the "Cascade des Anglais". That's so nice when you are 10

Scapadu must know what I'm talking about.

Keep posting

Nice pics! Thanks for posting the report!

El Chapulín Colorado · 07-12-2007, 03:18 AM

well done mate, great pictures. No chance you ran in to Alizee in your travels and are holding out on us?

Cooltours · 07-12-2007, 03:53 AM

Ride your motorbike from Porto to Corte, all the way through the Gorges de Spelunca and the Scala di Santa Regina …

….have an Expresso at the main-piazza of Corte, turn your bike around and ride all the way back. Repeat if enough time’s left!

Cooltours · 07-12-2007, 03:55 AM

Other things you supposed to do on the Island:
Visit world heritage “Calanche”, south of Porto at the evening hours, short before the sunset….

Cooltours · 07-12-2007, 03:57 AM

….and let someone take the same picture from you and your machine. The same picture EVERY biker has taken who has visited this place so far…

Cooltours · 07-12-2007, 03:58 AM

…see more Genovesian (or is it Genuesian??) towers…

Cooltours · 07-12-2007, 03:59 AM

…go catch some goose skin at the church where you find a graveyard inside instead of marble floor…
