Grand prix de furiani

The Grand Prix de Furiani is a cycling event held in Furiani, Haute-Corse, located south of Bastia on Corsica's east coast. Scheduled for September, the specific date is pending confirmation. The event features separate races: a 48.9 km for women and a 68 km for men. While listed under ultra-cycling, the distances are considerably shorter than the multi-day events typically associated with the term. The course information provided focuses on distances rather than a detailed route, making the host town the best reference. Furiani is situated on the northern part of the Marana plain. Its terrain ranges from sea-level coastal areas to hills reaching 720 meters within a small commune of 18.49 square kilometers. As part of the Bastia urban area, the race is based in a small Corsican town linked to a larger city, not an isolated mountain settlement.
