Ride in a “Cycling Paradise” with Mallorca Cycling Holidays

If a fellow cyclist were to ask you what is your ideal location for a cycling trip, what would you say? How about Spain? After all, it is well-known as a place where many pro cyclists train in the off-season. But what if you replied Mallorca?

Mallorca, Spain is an island off the coast of Spain and has perfect weather all year, challenging roads that are in excellent condition, and little to no traffic. That is what the bicycle travel company Mallorca Cycling Holidays offers its clients.

Who is Mallorca Cycling Holidays?

The company was founded in 2016 by Adam Moore who left a successful career in the health and fitness industry. Moore definitely has a love for Mallorca and has visited the island many times to ride its roads. He even won the 167th edition (2018) of the Mallorca Granfondo.

Mallorca Cycling Holidays trips are designed for solo travelers, groups, charity events, and corporate events. Moore instills his love of cycling and Mallorca into every trip the company offers, and he says the ultimate goal is to “provide incredible days on the bike with maximum fun and enjoyment while keeping you safe.”

What’s Included in a Mallorca Cycling Holidays Trip?

For starters, Mallorca has 300 days of sun a year with little rain. Its average temperature is in the mid 70s during warm months and hovers in the 50s during the winter.

If that isn’t enough, then how about a local government that promotes Mallorca as a “cycling paradise.” And last but not least are the views that cyclists get from the Sa Calobra and Tramonta mountain ranges.

Mallorca is definitely one of those locations in the world that sells itself on its own merits, especially if cycling is your passion. In addition to the things already mentioned, here’s what a client of a Mallorca Cycling Holidays trip can expect.

• High mountain passes perfect for climbers
• Cycling friendly accomodations
• Bike rentals (Basso road bikes from 40 Euros to 80 Euros per day)
• Repair shops
• Expert ride leaders

Mallorca Cycling Holidays Trips

Many trips you book with a bicycle travel company can be very expensive when you add in hotels, food, and other amenities. Mallorca Cycling Holidays keeps everything pretty affordable. In fact, your flight might be the most expensive part of the trip.

Most of the trips the company offers are centered around the island, but the company does offer a trip to the Dolomites in northern Italy. This trip is a way to support another great Mecca of cycling and Basso bikes, which are made in the same region of Italy.

Affordability, however, is still at the center of Mallorca Cycling Holidays trips. For instance, a 7 day trip to the island costs 825 euros for single occupancy (close to $900), which is amazingly cheap. This trip includes the following:

• 7 nights at a 4 star hotel
• Breakfast/ Dinner buffets
• Airport transfers
• Bike rental
• Ride leader
• Not included: flights, lunch, snacks, evening recovery beverages

Last Thoughts

If you are a cyclist and love the sport as much as I do, then a trip with Mallorca Cycling Holidays probably has your mouth watering. Nowhere I’ve ridden or wanted to go for a cycling trip has ever proclaimed itself as a “cycling paradise.”

I can say without a doubt Mallorca will be the next cycling-related trip I take. I hope I can get there soon, maybe in 2024/ 2025. Until then, I’ll just keep riding and try to get myself ready for those epic climbs.
