Week done and dusted.
Top tips
There are no flat rides anywhere out of Costa Teguise; every route I've done has had less than 9% flat roads on it so adjust mileage accordingly. Done as much elevation as a week in Mallorca in about 2/3 the km.
DO NOT FOLLOW ANYBODY ELSES ROUTE THAT GOES OFF THE LZ ROAD NETWORK. Seriously. Some joker will put up a route that casually throws you up a 15% gravel climb or try to get you on a road passable only by 4X4 through a volcano crater. If Google street view can't preview any part of it bin it. Likewise, Google maps directions for cycles cannot be trusted stick to the driving option if trying to route on the fly.
Club La Santa is on a part of the island that you would reserve for nuclear waste re-processing. Absolute hole.
