A spectacular days riding - through the Gorges de Spelunca following the D84 over the Col de Vergio at 1477m

A 50 km ride from Galeria to Porto Oto along the iconic D81, climbing from sea level over the Col de Palmarella at 408m then dropping back down to the sea at Porto Ota.

Along the famous D81b coast road from Calvi to Galeria. A pretty easy ride of about 38km. Then our first swim in the sea and an indulgently restful afternoon.

We planned an easy ride from Santa Reparata over to Calvi but a road closure forced us to make a big detour up hill and down - 46KM

The classic ride from Saint Florent crossing the Desert des Agriates and ending 58 km later in the hills above L'Île-Rousse.

A scenic 38 km ride down the west coast of the Haut Corse ending in Saint-Florent.

From Bastia across Cap Corse to Canari - 58 km ride.

A long day spent travelling to Bastia and the start of our holiday.
