Majorca Spain 2012

 So, last year and this year I've been going to Majorca Spain for a cycling camp. Fabulous riding, friends and drink. 

This year, I'm in line for the connecting flight from Madrid to Majorca when someone says my name. I turn around and guess who it is? EN's own Chris Malone with his gf Margaret!!! 

I doubt I'll be able to ride with him, as they're staying about 40km from me, here in pollensa. 

What are the odds???

    So it's rainy and we decide to noodle for a couple of hours. Heading down the road and POW! Scott Alexander riding down the same road. Can't swing a dead cat around here without hitting an ENer.
    A dusting of snow at the top of the mountains looking out over the Mediterrainian Sea. A very beautiful place. Awesome climbs. Lots to do other than ride a bike but we're riding. And enjoying nice dinners. The exchange rate is not good but prices even in Euros are very reasonable. Worth the effort to get here. Renting a house with 4 others in a litle village. Riding out of the front door into the mountains.

    oh, and Rich...you would LOVE the descending on some of these mountains. INSANE!!!

    Our best roads in TX are the worst roads in Majorca!

    Today's highlights: stunningly pretty ride out from Port Sollenza to Cape Formentor and the lighthouse. Awesome climbs, descended almost into a goat in the road, views that make the PCH look like a bike path through Long Beach. Long lunch in Alcudia, first settled by the Phoenicians. Local cervesas and pizza out in the sun. If gains are made in recovery, I should be ready for tomorrow and big climb day.
