Mallorca · 4 days · From GBP 449 (indicative)
A typical day starts with breakfast at the hotel buffet, then you pick your group and roll out. The leisure group rides at a light touring pace, 20–23kmph average, 65–85km and up to 650m of climbing, with coffee stops treated as part of the plan. The endurance group runs at 23–26kmph, 75–115km and up to 1,200m of climbing, through country lanes, orange groves, vineyards and up to mountain-top monasteries. You can switch groups each morning.
Both groups stop for coffee and cake in the morning and again for lunch, with an afternoon stop sometimes added on longer rides. The minimum fitness bar for either group is the ability to ride 90 minutes without stopping at the group's pace. Dinner is back at the hotel in the evening.
What separates this from a generic cycling holiday is the structure: daily supported rides at two set levels, a mechanic available at the hotel, secure bike storage, and a hotel that is the official venue of Zafiro IRONMAN 70.3 Mallorca-Alcudia. The Serra de Tramuntana climbs are nearby, and Alcudia beach is 200m from the hotel for a post-ride swim.
The ride captains are described as expert and English-speaking, but the page does not name them or list their qualifications. The operator, Sportive Breaks, states it has been organising cycling trips for over 25 years and is a member of ABTA and ATOL.
Alcudia sits in the north of Mallorca. The riding from the hotel heads into rural villages, rolling hills and coastline, away from the resort strips. Palma airport is roughly 45 minutes to an hour away by transfer.
