So you've climbed Sa Calobra, ticked off the 312 and even ridden out to Cap Formentor: reckon you've completed Mallorca?

A new cycling weekend from The Struggle - the team behind some of Yorkshire's toughest sportives - might just change your mind...

Running over the weekend of 21-24 March 2025, The Struggle's new trip is an introduction to some of Mallorca's finest gravel riding.

Based at the 4* Cabot Hotel in Port de Pollensa, the weekend packs in three days of riding starting with a leg-loosener on Friday afternoon after a morning arrival.

Saturday will see riders transported to Arta before riding 100km back to Port de Pollensa on what the organisers claim is some of the best gravel on the island, including the Via Verde along an old railway line that's been converted into a gravel greenway.

On Sunday, it's another 100km ride as you tackle the iconic loop over the Coll de Femenia - a classic Mallorca ride, but this time on gravel!

Prices for the weekend start at £499 which includes three nights half-board accommodation (breakfast and evening emals including drinks), airport transfers for you and your bike, expert local guides and 24/7 support from the on-site team.

The hotel is well equipped to cater for cyclists, with secure bike storage and access tomassagepools, spa and fitness room. 3T gravel bikes are available to hire as an optional extra if you'd rather not travel with your own bike.

And if three days isn't enough, the trip coincides with the Struggle's week-long Mallorca training camp. Running from 14-21 March, it's an ideal add-on for cyclists looking to extend their time on this cyclists' paradise.
