At Ciclos Major, we believe that cycling should be enjoyable for everyone—whether you’re chasing big miles or simply out to soak up the views. That’s why we usually offer five different riding groups, designed to suit a wide range of fitness levels and goals.
Our experienced guides are here to lead the way with carefully planned routes, café stops, and support throughout each ride. From our base in Alcudia, you’ll have easy access to both the scenic flatlands of central Mallorca and the breathtaking climbs of the Tramuntana mountains. We typically alternate between “Mountain Days” and “Flat Days,” with group speeds based on the flatter rides.
To help you stay fueled, we provide sports drinks and nutrition, and you’ll always find fruit and snacks available at your cycling hub—perfect for topping up your energy before heading out.
A little self-sufficiency is appreciated: bring along a spare inner tube, tools suited to your bike, some cash for café stops, and your ID and insurance details. Don’t worry—we’ll provide a handy wallet so you can safely carry these essentials along with your phone.
Here’s a guide to our riding groups, so you can find the one that’s just right for you:
ESPRESSO/DOUBLE ESPRESSO GROUP
For strong, fast riders ready to test themselves. These rides are 120–180 km with an average speed of 30+ km/h (on flat days). Expect a real adventure—long distances, big climbs, and the chance to explore nearly every corner of the island. There’s a balance of terrain through the week to keep things enjoyable and sustainable.
AMERICANO GROUP
Ideal for fit riders who enjoy a full day in the saddle at a more relaxed pace than the Espresso groups. Speeds average 26–28 km/h, with plenty of miles and scenic variety. A great choice for experienced cyclists who prefer a steady challenge.
CAPPUCCINO GROUP
For club-level riders looking for a satisfying, supportive ride. Distances range from 100–130 km at around 25 km/h. Climbs are taken at your own pace, with encouragement all the way. Our guides always ensure everyone reaches the top safely and confidently.
CAFÉ LATTE GROUP
A gentler version of the Cappuccino group, covering similar distances but at a relaxed pace of 22–23 km/h. Where possible, we offer routes that avoid major climbs. This is a fantastic group for those who want to enjoy the ride, take in the views, and still cover good ground.
Note: E-bikes are welcome in the Café Latte and Affogato groups.
AFFOGATO GROUP
Designed for easygoing riders who want to enjoy shorter, leisurely outings of 40–60 km at a gentle 15–18 km/h. Expect scenic routes, friendly company, and a couple of well-earned café stops along the way.
WOMEN-ONLY GROUPS
When there’s interest, we’re delighted to offer Women-Only rides, led by one of our expert guides. It’s all about comfort, confidence, and connection on two wheels.
No matter which group you choose, you’ll be supported by a friendly guide, surrounded by like-minded riders, and treated to Mallorca’s incredible cycling landscape. We’re here to help you find your rhythm—and enjoy every moment of the ride.
Mallorca is where culture, coastlines, and cycling converge. This island offers a bit of everything. So, whether you’re a Cappuccino cruiser, an Espresso chaser, or somewhere delightfully in between, the north of Mallorca is just for you.
Thinking of joining us? We’d love to help you find the perfect group and make your Mallorca cycling holiday something truly special.
