Cycling in Mallorca
Two volunteers were due to undertake this cycle ride on October 1st however due to torrential rain the ride was deferred for just one day. Over £500 has been raised already by the intrepid cyclists who endured injury, exhaustion, nausea and a 5000ft mountain climb on the way to their triumphant success as darkness fell on Soller. See the photos below that track their mammoth feat.
All ready for the off, each with 10.5 hours in the saddle ahead ....and an early injury
Half way up the 5000ft climb and then a well earned look at the view from the top
then a hair-raising 18 miles down the mountain to a welcome shower at the Le Gran Hotel and congratulations from the official adjudicator, Mark Walz. Cheers!
It is still possible to make a donation (stating ‘Cycle Ride’) acknowledging their effort on JAT’s behalf.
