Opening of our French Riviera office
Unicorn Adventures is the South Europe Motorcycle tours expert! |
Why? Because our marketing manager developing our tours for you has been living in the south part of France (right in the middle of the best roads ever made for biking (Alps, Italy, Spain, Slovenia, Croatia etc…) for ages and tested many great twisty roads. To make sure we go on developing fantastic rides we will base him right were the tours will start: on the French Riviera! Poor guy! What one has to do for the job!

| How will our 2006 tours look like? 2006 will be a year focused on southern France, from the French Riviera to the Spanish border and Northern Italy.
We will offer you 6 tours covering the Alps, the Mediterranean coast, an island, the Provence, the Camargue, the Languedoc, and many more places. |
The tours will take place in average four times a year for each of them and some times more for some; make sure you get the one you like at the time you will be over on the French Riviera.
|
Ordering? In August our ordering system will be in place allowing you to select your tour, date, accommodation type and motorcycle. |
| Ever tried the BMW R1200T?
Some of our friends call it a Vanity Case on |
Well definitely with its trendy colours (Black metallic, Gray metallic, and Red metallic) that bike looks classy. We selected the red one with a black lower fairing and black saddle (one can also mix silver and grey). For a year now it seems that BMW got bitten by a sort of “Taz”! The former R1150RT with the 1150 Boxer twin was already good but that 1200 has some sort of new “attitude”, more grunt!It was cool to ride a R1150RT but the R1200RT is fun! Yes a BMW can be fun! Surprising isn’t it? |
That big looking bike gives the feeling you will never be able to move it around, amazingly it drives like a bicycle, handy and easy, but keep in mind when you will optimistically approach too fast a sharp curve that it still weights close to 260kg! Luckily the new combined breaking system with its ABS does just what it has to save your pride. |
Nice Jazz Festival

Corsican songs While over in Corsica with on of our tours you may be lucky and join a Corsican Polyphony show. Polyphony (many voices) is made of a capella singing by a group of people from three to eight people. Traditional Corsican polyphony, following its revival in the 1970s, is now a central part of the expression of Corsican culture. Groups now form spontaneously, both for the pleasure of singing and frequently without a view to public performance. It is estimated that there are about 80 groups active in Corsica presently. You may be lucky and enjoy one of them singing in front of you. You will be touched by the deep feelings released and the sensitivity or those voices mixed together.

Tour de France Even though there is a Motorcycle Tour de France (mainly in September/October) we will here talk about the two wheel machines without an engine in the middle, you know those you need to push on the pedals to get them moving.

Just back from a trip to Corsica (try the Corsica Tour!!) I have noticed that we women have more concerns than men about our sun tan and its quality. Have you noticed that whilst riding, in places like southern Europe, under the sun, you may end up with a red square on your face (the full face helmet mark), except for two white eye marks and a red chest? Never forget to get a tube of solar cream in your bag! And right before each ride get some on your face and chest! |
