Hi all,

Looking to go May-ish somewhere in France/Mallorca/Italy (warm and inspiring really) with a couple of mates. One of the guys is not the fittest and the plan isn’t for a mad all out week of pain, rather some classic riding with good accommodation, riding and food. It’s a bit of a minefield with the googles for places offering this sort of thing so I thought I’d ask the collective here for any advice/experience….

Thanks!!

Have been to Majorca for long weekends several times. Lots of good riding, in the hills if you want or out on the plains. Have stopped in Puerto de Soller but the only way out of there is up a hill. Also have stopped at the Duva in Pollensa which is probably a better base, there’s more bars and restaurants for starters 😆

Puerto (a?) Pollensa is a nice place to be based.

See if anything from Marmot Tours fits the bill?

Port de Pollensa would be a good bet or somewhere between there and Alcudia in Majorca. Can stay flat and ride to the cafes or head for the mountains.

As above – duva in Majorca good option as can ride flat or mountains. Road to cap formentor been resurfaced too which is a beautiful ride.

Tri4thealps good in France too but may prob but early for Alps unless staying lowish. If weather ok lots of other options in morzine too but may be crap weather in May.
