    I went for a holiday at the end of June (not biking related, really) but I did manage to sneak a ride out.
    I stayed between Playa de las Americas and Los Cristianos and hired a bike from Bikepoint in Playa de las Americas.

    They had a decent range and were very helpful. I hired their cheapest bike which was alloy framed with full 105. I think it was a Ridley, but they had a wide range with everything up to full carbon with Di2 & discs.
    I also hired a helmet and mtb spds.

    They were helpful with routes and there looked to be lots of rides from the area.

    You will be going uphill a lot!
    I did a 30 mile ride (15 mile up & then turned round & came back down). In the 15 miles up, I did around 1400m of climbing.

    Take decent suncream – it was bloody hot with no shade.

    EDIT – here was my post asking for advice:
