Itinerary description
Actually started from Rondinara beach, riding down 150 m or so altitude. Top part close to the beach bad asphalt, better once you reach the first village. Nice route up moderately through pine forests and then down to Sotta. From Sotta ride through and take the road to the right that links up to the E59 and follow until you reach the start of climb to col Bacinu. Not too dificult, first part maybe 6-7% most of the way, a flattish area in the middle and then again another 3-4 km of 6-7%. Heat is the main problem. It was windy and cloudy for me so ok. There is a fountain with fresh water half way up, the first one was dry the second good. Filled up on the way up and down. I was pressed for time and came back to the left at the bottom of the climb towards Porto Veccio which is a nice route through countryside with little traffic but ends up close to Porto-Vecchio and I needed to do 10 km along the main road direction to Bonifaccio uphill and with heavy traffic. So avoid depending on which way you are heading.
