Hired a ford fiesta from RecordGo £94 + €59 for the week. Mebs best to go with another company to know exactly what cover you're getting - paid extra on arrival to cover our backs.
€40 of fuel.
€149 for bike hire including diddy (emergency) lights, helmet, saddle bag with gubbins for 6 days. Trek Madone 4.9 2014. Tramuntana tours based in Soller.
Lots of cafe con leche!
The weather was mixed. Arrived in sun. Cold at night (2-5C). Hail storms for a day. Very windy for a couple of days and we had a deluge of rain one morning resulting in greasy roads. The surfaces dry very quickly in the sun but North facing passes are fairly green in places in the winter.
I wore the following for cycling:
Leggings and padded shorts. Long sleeved thin top + cycling Windstopper jacket.
Thin but padded gloves and a merino Buff.
Gillet for the downhills.
On the cold days I wore my belay jacket for cycling at times and even Buffalo mitts over my gloves!
Louis kindly leant me his overshoes when he didn't need them - definitely an essential next time.
