September 21, 2022,Corsica Day 5. Corte day ride into Bandit country

A day spin out from the hotel. We arrived early, dropped the bags and ventured out on a loop. Tiny tarmac road that would perhaps be rough on skinny tyres but fine on 40mm gravel tubeless. This area had a village revolution a few years ago.
