off road

There are a lot of goat trail and mountain bike trail but locals do not like much to see bikes ripping the mountain roads. You better search local riders who can help you find where to go exactly , people from Corsica take their island preservation very seriously. Maybe some moto dealer over there could help.Take some pict its a great place to visit.

Start from Nice to Ajaccio .. go see Maison de Napoleon ... Corse is wild,,, high mountains , thousands of off roads , great rivers and streams ,, down to Bonifacio ,, one of the most beautiful spot I have ever seen ,, then take the ferry to Sardinia ,, then to Sicily ,, what a trip it would be !
Make sure you buy a famous Corsican hunting knife.
Great golf also.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
