Tour de Broads Abroad !

So you have ridden the Tour de Broads and a few other sportives. What’s next ???? 

Well, what about 5 riding days each with the style and hospitality of a fully supported TPR sportive blended with the local Mallorca expertise from our friends at SportActive plus a luxurious 5 star hotel ? 

We have teamed up to create an exclusive Tour de Broads Abroad holiday for a small group of like-minded riders and friends at NO EXTRA COST to the usual holiday prices and you can bring along a non-riding partner for good measure! 

 

Peace of mind and hassle free

A cycling holiday needs to be… well…. a holiday with lots of opportunities to cycle! But riding abroad can be daunting. There are so many options and how do you know who to trust ? Can you speak the local language? What routes to take each day? What can you safely achieve on your own? What about if anything goes wrong? 

At TPR Events, as cyclists ourselves, we too have dreamed of a cycling holiday in Mallorca for a long while. We like the idea of riding smooth roads with courteous drivers. We relish the chance to ride in short sleeves and shorts in a mid-twenties climate in October!  We absolutely love the idea of waking up each morning and having the choice of a longer mountains ride or a shorter flatter ride both led by local experienced guides and with full support incase we run into problems. 

So we have teamed up with our friends at one of Mallorca’s longest established and most popular holiday experts, SportActive, to create the familiar feel of The Tour de Broads but with the somewhat different environment of Mallorca. It will not all be cycling either. Our rides will finish mid-afternoon leaving plenty of time to explore from our well positioned 5 star hotel adjacent to the marina, promenade and old town at Alcudia. Each evening you will have a warm invitation to join us and the your fellow riders for dinner and we may have a few daily awards to present as we share the stories of the day. 

We would love you to join us (yes we will be riding too!) for a very special end to the season in the sun.

Daily Group Rides

Each day, 3 groups of no more than 12 riders will depart from our hotel. Groups are based on riders ambitions and abilities so do not be afraid of having to keep up with the youngsters or the superfit! A gentle tiring pace, a comfortable tempo and a more aggressive group is how it usually pans out with the mileage appropriate to the group. Each group is led by a local professional cycle coach who knows the roads and island well so expect the best roads, views and challenges as they show us their 20 years of experience.  There will be mechanical support en-route at the stops and out and about on the road and TPR’s Neil and John will be riding with you (John in the longer distance group, Neil having a more gentle bimble no doubt!). Below is a typical example of a weekly schedule:

Guided Riding in Mallorca

Mallorca is a cyclist’s dream, boasting a road network that winds through breathtaking landscapes, from majestic limestone cliffs overlooking turquoise seas to mountaintop monasteries and tranquil orange and olive groves. With its pro-cycling culture, idyllic weather in spring and autumn, and charming cafés serving coffee and almond cake in picturesque plazas, it’s no wonder so many riders fall in love with the island.

A guided cycling holiday elevates this experience by connecting you with expert local guides who know Mallorca inside out, ensuring you explore the best routes at the right times and avoid busier roads. Whether you prefer the thrill of iconic climbs like Sa Calobra or a relaxed coastal ride, your routes will be tailored to your ability and goals, all while you enjoy camaraderie and shared adventures with like-minded cyclists.

Guided cycling holidays also provide invaluable support, offering peace of mind that any unexpected issues will be handled smoothly by experienced professionals. From arranging alternative routes to resolving mechanical problems or organising a support vehicle if needed, your guides ensure a seamless, stress-free experience. On top of that, group riding introduces you to a sociable, fun environment where lasting friendships are formed, and the natural competition of tackling climbs together adds an extra layer of enjoyment. With smaller group sizes for safety and dynamic riding, and optional coaching to enhance your skills, a guided holiday in Mallorca offers the perfect blend of adventure, support, and unforgettable memories.

Our 5* luxury Tour de Broads Abroad cycling holiday combines the thrill of exploring Mallorca’s world-class routes with the comfort and elegance of premium accommodation. We will be staying at the renowned Hotel Zafiro Palace Alcudia. You’ll enjoy spacious suites, gourmet dining, and exceptional amenities designed to make your stay truly unforgettable.

After an exhilarating day on the bike, unwind in the hotel’s tranquil spa, relax by one of the stunning pools, or savour a delicious meal crafted from the finest local ingredients. Click here for more about our hotel.
