It Starts with Fitness and Base Miles

As you build your base miles and fitness, you are building the foundation for a better cycling season. Mallorca is the perfect place to do this thanks to its long winding roads, perfect temperatures, and cycling friendly culture.

Improve your Cycling

As you ride you will receive expert coaching advice helping you improve your techniques in cornering, braking, gear use, group riding skills, hill climbing techniques, bike safety and coordination. We use a group system to ensure you ride at your pace allowing you to progress.

Riding the Endless Smooth Roads of Mallorca

Mallorca (also spelled Majorca) is blessed with endless smooth roads. This ‘paradise for cyclists’ offers challenging climbs, thrilling descents, hairpin bends, and smooth country lanes. The island is cycling friendly and you will meet plenty of other cyclists whether it’s on a hairpin bend or enjoying a coffee after a challenging climb. You might even meet some famous ones.

All SportActive guests stay under the same roof

We ride together, we eat together, and camaraderie forms. Our guests tell us they make new long lasting friendships on our tours. If you are wondering if you can enjoy the training if you’re travelling alone, the answer is yes.

Relax after your Training

After a day on the road why not wind down with a relaxing sports massage? Or go for a spa or a swim in one of the three hotel pools? Let’s not forget the after-ride walk on the beach.
