If you turn on to the D35 from the D80 youll be disappointed at first but if you persevere youlll find a well surfaced road which is much more free from tourist traffic than other roads on the cape. The corners flow nicely and although visibility is limited the corners are predictable and without al...
Driving south on the D80 on the eastern side of the cap corse peninsula is quite a different experience than on the western side. The road is more open and has the occasional two lane section to pass cars, visibility is good bu can be very windy.
Many breathtaking cliff views of the sea and the cliffs on the west side of cape corse. Surface is mostly good, visibility limited but corners very predictable enjoyable. The occasional hire car emerging from blind corners on your side can keep you focused!

Whats great about this road is its combination of dramatic scenary (it runs along a jagged coa...
This road twists and turns as it rises out of Bastia, there are some great views overlooking the city as you rise up as well as some nice corners. Typically the corners are blind but are even radius and predictable so can still be enjoyed. The uphill section out of Bastia is good and the descent tow...
Many short and nice corners. Visibility quite limited through corners but no surprises really as corners are quite predictable. Very enjoyable but watch out for the occasional rental car driver coming the other way on your side of the road, can be a bit hairy if you

The N193 descends from Corsicas central mountain range down to the coast. A fast-paced road with good tarmac and lots of curves to keep your attention focused.
The N196 was one of my favourite roads on the island. The corners on this road are more open and better surfaced than many of the D roads in Corsica. This road can be enjoyed by just about any kind of biker with any level of experience on any bike. Great!
Great selection of medium and high speed sweepers on good surface with quite good visibility. Be careful to slow down through the village sections and watch out for expert local drivers trying to tempt you to go a bit faster than you can!
