Cycling Ride up the Puig Major

If you are on your holidays to Mallorca and are in the Alcudia area on Sunday 26 September you will be able to see one of the most important cycling events in Mallorca - the ride up the Puig Major which is the island's highest mountain [1436m].  Although part of this is used by the miliary and is closed to visitors, the steep slopes are covered with sweet smelling wild rosemary and is home to goats, sheep and rare birds. 

The event is organised each year by Trencagarrons and on this occasion the organisation hopes to exceed 400 participants.  A chance to enjoy riding up this mountain and to take part in one of the annual cyling-touring routes on the island.
