    1. When descending it helps to use your brakes in the straight, start on the outside of the corner & lean in to the apex. But safety first, you'll get there. Confidence grows w/ experience.

    2. Another instant classic, Amy. 🙃 Two thoughts: you're the first person to abscond with a bag of oats in their shorts; and … NINE ?? Did he say €9 for that Magnum? Stop it, Mallorca.

    3. Hi Amy, I too struggle to sleep past my usual wake up time, I wake up early each day 4-40, we’ve 3 bearded collies that I walk each morning before I cycle to work, and they are a better alarm than any alarm clock or phone alarm! Even with no alarms I too still wake up at the same time (even on holiday) the body just gets used to waking at that time 🙄 fantastic views on your lighthouse ride, I know from Strava you did the full 312, well done 👍 looking forward to that video 😎

    4. Amy Malones…our baby…u should have gone to Italia…the home of cycling where your Pinarello is made,Mallorca is too vulgar, it's for the pleb !!! just keep on with your fantastic work.

    5. I'm not jealous of that weather, I said I'm not jealous of that weather😆Those descents looked a lot of fun😁Good luck with the 312, do what you are comfortable with👍

    6. Beautiful ride! I had the same nerves this weekend as I traveled to a charity ride 3 hrs away solo, thankfully a fellow cyclist ask to ride with me. Im with you, see how you feel and do whatever miles that suites you, it is about having fun, enjoy!! Heheey!☝️😉

    7. CAMS sorted me out, when a van took me out the end of last year… I need one of those jersey's…and stop stressing about the crowds, just get on with it and embrace it.

    8. About 10 years ago you were able to do a week in Mallorca for about 350 Euro for flights and hotel (all in) in the beginning of the season (April). Bike rental was about 100 euro for a week. Haven't flown with a bike in a while so don't know what airlines are asking now but it used to be about 90 Euro on European flights return

    9. I enjoy your videos. One question I have for you. When you talk miles and feet, could you put on screen what it is in kilometers and meters?

    10. Nice Weather ! You have dodged some rain back in the Uk so that's a plus. Yes ride it steady and keep on the alert. Will be riders from all diff countries riding prob who might pull off some strange unexpected moves now and again. :).

    11. Night Amy interesting this ride as I have ridden it a few times virtually with a real video on Rouvy App so I get real resistance but it was the view at the top which I wanted to see as the video stops just as I get to the car park at the lighthouse. Cap Formentor If that is how it is spelt . Always love your videos😍 have great ride

    12. When I started watching this and you said you’re going to Cap de Formentor cafe, I started laughing as I was waiting for your reaction at the prices.😂 The queues of cars waiting for a car parking spot is an eye opener too.😱

    13. Flipping heck. That fella @11:41, overtaking a car on the decent, with oncoming traffic in the opposite lane, looks as if he leads a very risky lifestyle 😮

    14. You did a great job of filming there. It was the best of these types of ride I have seen so far on YouTube. Hear you about descending – being older, the implications of coming off at high speed are so bad I take it steady.

    15. Seeing “interesting” cornering discipline. Either single radius turns or early apex, both of which will load the tires unnecessarily. Any grit or moisture will be disastrous. Plus, these errors increase the change of having to widen the line which will put a rider into a guard rail or a collision situation with oncoming traffic.

      There a lots of videos on racing lines… mostly for motor sports. Cyclists would do well to watch these as the physics is all the same.

      Haven’t touched on speed, just “line”. Stirling Moss quote applies ~ “I’d rather be slow into a corner and fast out of it than fast into a corner and dead out of it”. On steep downhill sections, scrubbing too much speed in the entry point of a corner can be corrected after the apex.
