Vuelta e Menorca

I haven't been blogging that much as I haven't been riding as much. Crap weather and a pretty tough year so far personally and professionally so the time has slipped away.
Thankfully though, holidays do arrive and this year I was off to Menorca. I rented a bike from
Tot Velo in Cuitedella (Carbon Trek Domane) and headed off to explore as much as I could.
As with Majorca the roads are fantastic and the respect for cyclists is excellent.
Being a smaller island with not coastal road there is fewer option for cycling a loop.
I did manage to keep it interesting by heading up to the highest point on the Island, Monte Toro. In the heat the 15% switchbacks were fun (!"$!) but the reception from the French tourists clapping and cheering at the top made it worth it. I also cycled to the most northerly point on the island Cap de Cavalleria which was an adventure into the wilds.
As cycling goes its a good place to go if you don't mind doubling back on yourself a lot but Majorca is still the best place to cycle in the Balearic's.
