MALLORCA RIDE CAMP
Join our Mallorca Ride Camp to enjoy early season base miles in a mild climate and get a head start for the cycling season ahead. Whilst there is plenty of climbing there will be freedom to ride at your own pace and take a break whenever you need to.
Spring and Autumn in Mallorca offer near perfect cycling conditions with temperatures ranging from 10 degrees at night to 17 degrees in the day.
On an Eat Sleep Cycle tour all you have to think about is enjoying your ride and on this Ride Camp enjoy the comfort of a support vehicle. We take care of everything so you can savour the ride of a lifetime.

IS THIS TOUR FOR ME?
Yes!
The Mallorca Ride Camp is focused on long base miles to prepare you for the season ahead. Whilst there is plenty of climbing, there will be freedom to go at your own pace (because we understand that fitness is not its highest in the Spring!)
The support vehicle will never be from the group should you wish to take a break, making this tour accessible for Level 2 (Intermediate) riders looking for a challenge.
We are experienced at adjusting rides to suit different rider levels within a group. Please give us a call if you have any doubts or questions.

FOOD & ACCOMMODATION
Half Board
Local Mallorca food (known in the native tongue as ‘Mallorquin’ food) is based on pork, fish and vegetables. In this regional Spanish food you’ll find generous helpings of garlic and olive oil, a cuisine one full of hearty home-cooking.
Rooted in local traditions and ingredients that can be found on the island, you can expect plenty of terrific almonds and juicy olives to feature. Not to mention the fat walnuts, plump lemons and salt from the wonderful natural salt plains in the south.
The tour is half-board, including breakfast and evening meals at our hotel.
