Let's try to be objective : despite frequent speed checks, shouting car drivers and so on, France is one of the best country for motorcycling : culture, various landscapes, global road surface quality and amazing roads, everything is here to make you happy.
Roads interest
In all regions of France, and especially in the south, you'll find unforgettable motorcycling roads.
Road surface quality
Pretty good, despite some secondary roads are sometimes a bit damaged, as well as some mountain roads.
Landscapes
Many regions are very beautiful, and each one at his own way, that's why France is so interessant to visit.
General atmosphere / safety
Let's say we can as much meet really welcoming people as moaning ones !! Considering safety, it depends on the region, open your eyes and be a minimum careful and everything will be OK.
Car drivers behaviour
Either stressed and agressive or slow and unattentive, and in both cases sure that he is the best driver in the world (stupid, because everybody knows it's me).
Speed controls
Automatic controls and manned ones are now everywhere, even on secondary roads...be careful.
If your are from European union, passport or identity card are enough.
