Cycling holiday in Mallorca... Wondering if anyone who has done it could share their thoughts.
Take my own bike or rent one?
Renting one seems like the least hassle compared to taking my own bike, I'd need to get a case and pay the excess baggage fee. Also slightly concerned about my million quid carbonz bike being damaged in transport etc. Rentals don't look cheap and can't help feel that I'd just enjoy it more being on my own bike.
Where to stay?
Port de Pollenca seems like a good base or at least staying in the north of the island. The friend I'm going with lives in a fairly rural sleepy part of Scotland and would like to be staying in a place thats a bit more lively at night.
If it's a cycling holiday, then I think staying in the north is wisest, as the best roads are there, and it's easier to get away from traffic, whereas around Palma that's more of a challenge.

Any input much appreciated!
