Description

Gorge Blau to Coll de sa Bataia

I was on holiday on the beautiful island of Mallorca in Spain and wanted to cycle some of the hills to maintain my fitness levels. Cycling in Mallorca is heaven. Most of the time the weather is glorious, the roads are super smooth and the other road users and motorists are incredibly courteous to cyclists - I think to some extent that's because they realise the value cycling tourism has to the island.

This is the downhill ride of this video. I had been aiming to go beyond Gorge Blau and continue my climb to Puig Major however, my legs gave out and I cut the ride short at the Gorge and returned to Coll de sa Bataia..I was grateful for the long downhill sections back to sa Bataia.😀 Enjoy the stunning scenery.

The bike I used for these rides is a beautifully light stainless steel bike made by Independent Fabrication and on hire from n+1 Bicycles in Pollenca.
