Some pictures from the Mallorca bike trip

Mallorca Bike Trip with Daniel

On April 11th, Daniel and I headed towards Palma de Mallorca. We were about to spend a week in the northern part of the island. Unfortunately, Mallorca has a dodgy reputation, but it is one of the greatest places for riding a bike I have ever been to. See some more pictures. Long flat roads, rolling hills, mountainous roads, it has just everything a cyclist wants. Our hotel was amazing (Club Pollentia), good location and a huge buffet. I swear, no chance to avoid gaining weight, even though we did many bike rides. Especially the deserts...mhhhmm, we could never resist, it was just too good.
Thursday and Friday we made some shorter trips (50-70km to Cap Formentor and the Monastery Lluc up in the mountains). On Saturday it was raining so heavily, we did not even leave the room for very long. However, we anyways needed a regeneration day. On Monday we went for a flat stage, down do Petra which seems to be a riders meeting point - cyclists everywhere.

Tuesday we went for the long trip to Sa Calobra and met Richi along the way (check out his story of this stage :-). Daniel did not promise too much, it is indeed an astonishing ride down to Sa Calobra.
The weather was wonderful and at the end of the day we were pretty hungry - no wonder, 115km and 2000m of altitude. Every good things come to an end...so the last day we had again great weather and went for a tour through the rolling hills.

I always felt that my legs were tired, so I was physically ready for going home, not mentally. One thing is for sure, I will come back next year.

Bösenstein, 2476m

Last Sunday Johannes and I decided to take our snowboard equipment and climb one of the highest mountains in our region. We still found plenty of snow, had a wonderful day and great run with the snowbard down the mountain. Look at some more pics...

Another Day of Powder

Some weeks ago we got really a lot of snow (about 1m). This made me grab again my snowboard and put my bicycle aside. My brothe Reini, a friend Hannes and myself went up to the mountain to enjoy the powder. It was awesome!! Nearly no other folks, just us boarding down the slopes. Have fun watching the video
