Last year I stormd up here a couple of times but today was very tough and I was glad to see the garage and the fridge full of cold drinks! The roads were very quite apart from a coach on a fast bend that required a bit more leaning than had hoped for and on the lower slopes it was like descending into an oven - even the breeze was super heated. A headwind did no favours to the run back into Pollensa and a cold beer at Tolos followed by a 3 hour kip on the beach was a nice rounding off to the day. A short ride with the camera tommoz to give my legs a rest before a couple more proper rides with Sa Collabra on the cards............
