Short cycling holiday - Majorca?

space2ground1 · 23-01-2022 3:24pm #1

Hi all, I’ve been thinking of going on a cycling holiday for a few days for ages and now that Covid is less of a hassle, Im just starting to look around. Basically I’m after 3-4 nights somewhere sunny with good roads where I can rent a road bike and base myself in one place for the duration.

Does anyone have recommendations for packages or companies that do this? I’d happily go anywhere where the flights are cheap and easy from Dublin.

Thanks!

Majorca is excellent, Dublin to Palma and if possible stay in port de pollenca, rent a bike in the town as loads of shops there and you are central for all the good routes.

Yep, you've basically just described Mallorca's raison d'être.

Ryanair/aerlingus flight, cheap hotel on Booking.com, and any of the multitude of bike rental places will sort you out with a bike.

For better / hotter weather earlier in the year then you any of the Canaries do likewise.

Magnificent 😁 Roughly how much am I looking at for a road bike per day there? Just working out budgets. I reckon €250 for flights, €500 for accomodation.
