Recommend me some 25-50k loops in Mallorca
Quote | Reply
Maybe one day climbing, but would like at least some flat options. Prefer light traffic, near Sa Pobla, Campanet, Inca, Alaro (that part of the island). I'm renting a bike for 4 days and will be cycling with my significant other. Bonus points for midway cortado stop on ~50k rides. Aaaaannnd... go!

I can't help with felt routes so much but Inca is great for a cafe stop. When the shops were will closed for Siesta all the cafes were still open in the town square and cyclist friendly.

Head to Caimari up the climb turn right to Pollenca and then back along the flat to Inca. Or turn left at the top of the climb and head to Soller then back to Inca via Bunyola. If you have the legs do Sa colabra.

I use the route builder in the garmin connect app on my phone. That one made me great routes on Mallorca!

from there i think the lighthouse ride is good money for you, mate - beautiful, bit of climbing, spectacular scenery. . . really a stunning ride. it's an out-an-back, mind you, but i liked it so much i did it a few times while i was in pollenca in april! (for coffee stops, a million options in puerto pollenca.)

The riding in Mallorca is so amazing! A few years ago when I went with Kevin Coady, we would pick a town and navigate to it by Google Maps on the road. It would have us turn onto all of these country roads, but they were perfectly paved (with maybe one or two exceptions) with beautiful scenery and very little traffic. It's really hard to go wrong just getting lost. Here are some of those rides:

ETA: I think that first route we went off-roading a little bit, but I survived on my 808s, so couldn't have been that bad :-).

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! First ride today was great, found a super fun little road tucked between Mancor and Lloseta. Tomorrow going to take a similar narrow, winding side road into Pollença. And going full euro with my new cycling cap under my helmet. lol
