Spring in Mallorca with Sportive Breaks

Ride Mallorca with Sportive Breaks this Spring. Our Mallorca Cycling Weekender includes 3 to 4 days of guided rides. 

You will arrive mid-week ( as flight prices are a slightly cheaper and you will depart on Sunday so you can be back for work on Monday).

Every day you can join your choice of 4 guided rides straight from the hotel. You can choose from 4 ride groups depending on your fitness and experience level. 

You will feel confident and put at ease by English speaking ride captains.

Bring your own bike or rent one of our carbon road bikes. Stay with us at a 4-star hotel in Playa de Muro where the best riding is in Mallorca. Breakfasts and evening meals are included. As well as the cycling, you can enjoy the hotel’s pool and of course you can have a dip in the sea.

Spread your payments: Our payment plan is an interest-free payment method where you will have the opportunity to spread payment for your booking. We offer 1, 2 or 3 extra nights after our Weekender. Stay an extra night on Sunday and ride Sa Calobra with us on Monday.

4 levels of riding groups every day: From a leisurely coffee ride group to hard riding, we have you covered. You can even mix and match as there is no need to stick with the same group every day

Climb Puig Major and Col de Soller: On our big mountain ride on Friday we ride the only “Hors Categorie” climb on the island. Puig Major is the highest point you can ride to in Mallorca

Discover the real Mallorca: Far away from the beaches and tourism, rural Mallorca is a delight of slow paced villages, rolling hills, great food and a couple of great climbs.

Book extra nights: We offer 1, 2 or 3 extra nights after our Weekender. Stay an extra night on Sunday and ride Sa Calobra with us on Monday.

The transfer takes approximately 45 minutes depending on traffic.

You can bring your own bike as we have planned to transport bike boxes on our airport transfers (available at extra cost of £22 per bike). Alternatively, you can rent a bike with us for the weekend. Our mechanic will be available this afternoon at the hotel to assist you with fitting your rental bike or building your own bike after travel. Bikes can be safely stored at the hotel.

Airport Transfers

We offer the option to book airport transfers from Palma Airport. Airport collections are from Palma (PMI) and the drive to Playa de Muro takes 45 minutes to an hour. We offer private transfers for your party direct to the hotel, so no time wasted. Prices start from £55 return per person for 4 or more passengers. The price depends on how many people are travelling plus how many bikes are being transported. Bike transport costs £22 return per bike. A return transfer for 2 people with two bikes costs £222 (£111pp) as an example. All transfer prices are available when you make your booking. Please contact us. [email protected]
