Courses
There is a choice
between two courses which you can take part in:
-
The M312: The long distance route, complete tour of the island 4,300 meters climbing and approx. There is a 14 hour time limit.
- The M167: A shorter Sportive, which appeals to the less competitive cyclist, covering 2588 vertical meters.
The Mallorca 312’s lap of the island can be almost divided into two halves. The opening half of the course has nine mountain
pass ascents. The second half of the Mallorca 312 leaves the mountains to the flatter area of the coast. Riders can also choose to tackle the Mallorca 167, which includes the initial mountain
section, before returning back to the start line via the beautiful roads along the base of the Tramuntana.
To help riders get round within the time limit, there is a 'Green Dot Group' of local riders who set a steady speed in order to finish inside the allocated time.
