Why Mallorca is building a reputation for cycling as well as golf
With the Mallorca 312
Words: GolfPunk
Mallorca’s reputation as a golfing destination has been growing year on year, with courses such as Son Gual leading the way. But the island has also started to build a reputation as a serious cycling destination.
Over the past 10 years the Mallorca 312 has grown into one of the most popular Gran Fondos in the world, attracting 8,000 entries last year. And as we know a lot of GolfPunk readers are also keen on cycling, we thought we would share this with you.
The event provides entrants with 3 distance options: 312 km; 225 km and 167km, embracing some of the most spectacular climbs and vistas across the island.
Join the Gourmet Cycling Club to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Mallorca 312 - book before the 5th October 2018 to secure an entry for this prestigious event. They provide a range of 4 and 7 night private, group and corporate team packages that include: a guaranteed event entry, insurance, shirt, and engraved finishers medal.
