MALLORCA<br />

Sa Colobra. “The cobra.” They named this climb<br />

“the cobra.”<br />

Riding here will never let you down. Even when you wish that<br />

the climbs would let up.<br />

MALLORCA ISN’T<br />

JUST A EUROPEAN<br />

VACATION<br />

HOT SPOT. IT’S<br />

THE TRAINING<br />

DESTINATION<br />

OF SOME OF<br />

CYCLING’S BIGGEST<br />

PROFESSIONAL<br />

TEAMS. WE’LL<br />

SHOW YOU WHY.<br />

We were perched on a ridge, ready to ride down to the coast,<br />

and then back up The Cobra. Our <strong>Trek</strong> <strong>Travel</strong> guide, Jason, told<br />

us before we left the van that the road looked like someone<br />

threw spaghetti along the side of a mountain. And as crazy as<br />

that sounds, he wasn’t wrong. Sa Colobra is one of Mallorca’s<br />

signature climbs, along with Puig Major, Col de Soller and<br />

the climb to the lighthouse in Pollença. A simple search on<br />

Strava reveals that these are also the favorite climbs of pros<br />

everywhere, and it’s easy to see why. Here, the roads feel like<br />

Europe, but much smoother. The weather is almost always<br />

72 and sunny. And every driver knows that cyclists have the<br />

right-of-way.<br />

We’ll never forget The Cobra. It’s where we learned just how<br />

unique Mallorca truly is.<br />
