Much of the island is easy to reach thanks to Mallorca’s transport links, and there are some great places close by.

The Best Mallorca Cycling Routes
SportActive’s leaders and coaches ensure you cycle the safest, almost traffic free routes, leaving you free to enjoy the Mallorca landscape and talk with friends old and new. You’ll be taken to vibrant towns and tucked away villages, and enjoy wonderful food and coffee in cafes and bars often found in piazzas and other great locations. No doubt you’ll be talking about the day’s cycling route over dinner later that night!
Group Riding, Camaraderie and Friendship
Group riding makes for a great icebreaker so if you’re a solo traveller, a couple, or part of a larger group be assured you’ll be making friends. The team spirit and friendships that form are the kind that only cycling with like minded people can give you.
SportActive Cycling limits groups to a maximum of 12 cyclists for safety and better group cohesiveness and dynamics.
Don’t worry if you’ve never ridden in a group before. Our coaches and leaders will look after you so you can enjoy each day. The groups are exclusive to SportActive guests allowing the team to give you their full attention.
It's a Cycling Holiday not a Race!
Our leaders will match you to the perfect group. We have groups for relaxed cycling and groups for those that want to ride that little bit further and faster. Most of all, cycling with SportActive is fun, and you’ll have a highly enjoyable experience.
Hire the Perfect Bike
When you hire a bike with us, we take your measurements before you arrive, so the bike is ready to go when you get here. We can provide a saddle but to ensure your cycling is as comfortable as possible, we recommend that you bring your own saddle, although we can supply one if you prefer.
After you get the feel of your hire bike we can make further alterations to make the bike even more comfortable and a joy to ride. We take pride in our bikes’ performance so you can enjoy the best day’s cycling possible.
Meet and Cycle with the Legend Sean Kelly
Sean Kelly is ranked as one of the best cyclists ever to have lived. His 196 pro victories and his classic race performances are amazing. In his era, he was the best cyclist in the world for five consecutive years. His title of “The King of the Classics” is well deserved.
Sean is also a super person to cycle and socialise with and his on the bike stories have become legendary. Cycling with Sean Kelly is a bucket list event that you don’t want to miss.
