Updates from Mallorca. Upgraded to GP5000s w/tubes due to greasy, marbley roads and some hairy moments upon arrival. No punctures in 2 1/2 months. Cycled over 800km in January including a 3 day loop of the island, last weekend. Day 1 started in s'Arraco and covered the Serra De Tramuntana. Climbing up to Puig Major with dry roads and snow on the verge and mountains. The descent to Pollenca was spectacular. Day two, a shorter day up to Cap De Formentor on largely deserted roads and then leisurely roll to Cala Ratjada via Son Serra. Day 3 was a biggie with crosswinds all day on the east coast. Flew for the first two hours and had bonked by Palma. Pulled it together for final 45km back to the start by 5pm.
