On Tuesday, October 8, 2024, registration for the Mallorca 312 opened. Seven members of our gran fondo group were ready at their computers at precisely 11:00 AM to register. Only two lucky ones managed to secure a starting spot. The rest had to settle for the waiting list. My confidence in the waiting list was not very high, so I immediately started looking for organizations offering start packages.
I quickly came across Tenerife Bike Tours. They offered a package that met my basic requirements:
Tenerife Bike Tours is a Spanish cycling holiday organization offering a wide international range, founded by the highly athletic brothers Alberto and Marcos Delgado. Excited by their website, I contact the Delgado brothers to ask if they still have start packages for Mallorca 312. Marcos tells me there is still availability, and I can get a 10% discount on the Mallorca package if I book another training week (on Tenerife, La Gomera, Gran Canaria, the Spanish mainland, in Italy, or France) through their organization. He also mentions that former pro David Lopez from Team Sky will be one of the guides in Mallorca. I don’t need much time to decide—this is my chance to make my long-cherished dream come true. Mallorca 312, here I come!
