From Nice to Corsica... on both bikes !!

In the end we stayed two nights in Nice, close to the BMW garage. We took the time to enjoy Nice, wich is a very busy, but still very Mediterranean city. The cities boulevards and roads around the centre and thus sea are packed with traffic, somethimes 5 rows each way. But the good thing is all the motor and scooters in town and there are tons off them, ride as I like it best, passing everywhere, left right in the middle, and the cars let them and give them room... well just enough.
The mechanic managed to get it running fine again (even better), and after I had changed all the broken lightbulbs and installed a new battery (Still not sure why I broke all off them), we got on the ferry to Corsica.
So we were in Corsica. A bit earlier as planned, but the weather on the continent was not helping and to be honest, I wanted to go really bad to the Island.
We ended up in Calvi for the first week, and by luck the first campsite we found, and that had campers for rent was the same one I have been on before with all my friends when I was around 18. 2 minutes from the beach and 15 minutes walk to town.
In the morning Anne goes to get bread....
and I do as if I know what I am supposed to do...From here we have been riding through mountains and along some stunning cliffs, road vary from good with good tarmac and curves to 30 or less KM an hour stretches with hairpins, no rails or barriers, patched road-repairs which are repaird again, and washed away again.
Oh, and cows here and there, and a horse...
Tomorrow we leave to a new village in an other region, so we keep you up to date...
