Corsica 2006

By motorcycle and camping around the island once

In the summer we wanted to go to Norway. However, since all the campers were fully booked, we decided to go short on a motorcycle ride to Corsica.

Turatechalter First, it was said, to bring meaningful structure to the motorcycle luggage. For this I chose the Turatec aluminum case. These are very practical, waterproof, fast-off and mount them and universal. Since it is my Yamaha XT 600 gives no support to measure, a skilled metal worker had to work with me. In a "long" we had this device working together.

Tturatec After I had it gesprayed with black lacquer, we could start packing. We went up to the maximum load limit for the XT. So we did not know if the motorcycle is perhaps too vague for this longer trip. If this were the case, we had pitched our tent already in Ticino.

Korsika The ride was not a problem so we could go on and pass Ticino Locarno to Stresa to Savona. There, we booked a passage on the Corsica Ferries.

What is to say, it was hot - very hot. We thought, as temperatures in Switzerland were also at record levels, we would certainly stand the heat better. Yes, it can be deceiving.
