Looking at a map of the French Maritime Alps will give you an idea of the riding which awaits you and your motorcycle! You will notice the number of passes and curves, leaving only one question to be answered: Will there be enough time to discover all of this most attractive European motorcycle paradise?
Climbing some of the famous French Tour de France passes like Col de Turini, you will get an idea of what the cyclists must go through during the race. We are looking for a different pleasure – enjoying the flow of curves on our bikes! A quite different ride awaits us at the picturesque Cinque Terre and the French Riviera, which are connected by the famous Via Julia Augusta along the Ligurian coast. We experience unique cities like Monaco, Nice and Genoa and complete the amazing Ride4Fun tour between France and Italy.
