    CYCLING PARADISE, MALLORCA! (PT.1)



    EPISODE #42
    This is 1 of 3 videos following my week away on my first cycling holiday abroad on the beautiful island of Mallorca. We stay in a lovely town famous for its cycling, Port de Pollenca… As I say, this was my first time going away with my bike, it was very exciting to say the least and i couldnt have picked a better place to go nor with better people. Me, James and Alex set of on a 7 days adventure, taking in everything that the island has to offer… we pretty much saw it all! and what better way to take it in, than by bike.
    I had an absolutely incredible time, check it out in the videos, see what we get up to and if yourer thinking of visiting Mallorca… I suggest you do so!

      Enjoy your holiday but stay safe; a lot of footage on the wrong side of the road, many people die here on cycling holidays. Even locals have had accidents with goats on some descents and lost their lives.

      Fave place in the world to ride my bike. Unless you've been there on a bike you can't understand how amazing the roads climbs and views are.

      Hey Thomas, would you be up for a challenge???

      I’d give you free reign for a leg sleeve if you can beat me up The Brickworks (a local climb just south of Manchester), I win and it’s a nice geometric mandala style thing (in your style of course), you win and you can do what the fuck you want! Take the piss, like (pretty much) anything!

      Got back early June after a ten day stint. 9th trip. Love it. Always take the Defender and do multiple stays around the island. Favourite spots being the north east around Arta/Canyamel, Valldemossa and Palma Old Town. A perfect island with everything a cyclist could wish for, from amazing roads, weather, scenery and cols, to great bars and cafes for a beer, and the coolest food scene for evening meals. And the Spanish welcome is, as always, just wonderful. Such friendly, happy, fun loving people. One complaint, too many tourists, but such is life with cheap and easy flights across Europe now. Fortunately they don’t tend to get out on bikes and up into the hills. Great vid, thanks for the memories. Next trip already planned for Oct….🤘

      Fantastic video you're a big inspiration to many of us! Just watching gets me motivated to get out and ride no matter the weather or condition.

      Love this. Went to Majorca in the summer, cycling is magical. Btw they do magnetic go pro mounts so u could use 1 go pro instead of 2 as you can pull it off your chest whenever you want

      Well I started here with your videos as Mallorca since 2018 is a yearly must even timed it right through Covid being the last on the island before it shutdown and only 6 on the plane, said by others before your videos capture what its all about and love your passion.
