Matthew and I will be in Mallorca for Stuart Halls October cycling camp. These started 3 years ago and I've been on all of them, first one there were a dozen only, last year a couple of hundred! It's the best time to go imo as the weather has always been warmer and dryer than March/April and the atmosphere relaxed. There will be several groups with ride leaders for all abilities etc; Matthew and I will do our own thing some days and perhaps have a few others string along. Stuart has a special reduced price offer on the moment for past customers, I had an email but it's probably on his website stuarthallcycling.co.uk
I've been looking at flights from Birmingham with Monarch, trying to get decent prices and flight times. Going out Sundays at 3.00pm it's currently £44.99 on 28th Sept & 12th Oct, or £61.99 on 5th Oct. Coming back from Palma at 7.25pm it's £104.99 on Sunday 5th Oct, £84.99 on 12th, £60.99 on 19th; or at noon on the Monday £77.99 on 6th Oct, £64.99 on 13th and 20th Oct.
Bike costs are £24.99 each way, or if you email Stu you can hire a good road bike there as part of the package he does. If you rent a bike box in the UK bikeboxalan it's £70 for 2 weeks. You need to book hire bikes or boxes early. Hoping to see a good crowd from WFCRC this October, post a reply if you will going. Don't forget your EHIC card and insurance which you need to carry in Mallorca, and helmets are now compulsory.......bit like the cake!
