The Ride: Mallorca Week Cycling Holiday
There’s no better place for our first The Ride training camp than Mallorca. With some of the best road surfaces in Europe, early season sunshine and a mix of mountain rides & flatter terrain, Mallorca is the perfect early season cycling destination. Based in Playa de Muro, this week of riding, training & socialising includes daily off the bike sessions as well as the best rides on the island. We ride the biggest climbs (Sa Calobra, Puig Major, Puig Randa, Coll de Soller) as well as some chaingang & skill sessions on the flatter parts of the island.

Day One : Arrival / Lighthouse Warm Up
Our mechanic is at the hotel to help build bikes and to fit rentals. For those that want a warm up ride, we head to the famous lighthouse for a coffee. In the evening we have our welcome meal at 7.30 where our guides will talk through the week.

Today is all about getting our legs ready for the week ahead and is a flat day exploring the beautiful middle of Mallorca. The ride takes us to the market town of Sineu, up the classic climb of Puig Randa with great views of the whole island, coffee & cake in Petra and back along the coast. We should be back mid afternoon.

Into the mountains for the first time with two quiet, stunning climbs. The ride is 122km and mostly flat apart from the two climbs in the middle of the route. The Coll de Soller is packed with hairpins and gentle gradients before the quiet & remote Coll d’Honor. We get lunch on the road (budget €10-€15) and aim to be back at the hotel mid afternoon.

Plenty of climbing but suitable for most regular riders.
|
The ride centres on the toughest climb on the island: Sa Calobra. We leave a bit earlier than normal and ride to Selva before going up past Lluc to the top of Sa Calobra before the road gets busy with traffic. After a thrilling descent it’s a big effort back up and then a lovely descent home.
Day Five : Hermitage

An easier day sandwiched between three big rides. We ride all together at a relaxed pace along the coast and then take on one easy climb up to the hermitage at Betlem before spinning home. Then a nice relaxed afternoon by the pool or beach before the big ride tomorrow.

See end of week sportive below. After the ride our mechanics are on hand to pack bike boxes and then enjoy a few drinks after dinner.
