    Best of luck to all of you! I did the Transtramuntana 3000 ( meters) in 2015...at 170k, that was enough for me! Enjoy.

    Super event. 6500 participants. Did the 167 after a hard week's cycling and survived well. Great that the weather was good. The highlight surely is the 12k descent into Soller on closed roads. The locals might not be happy about closed roads but it is cycling nirvana.

    Did the 312 super event if a little brutal at times the 1st 3000m of climbing are bad enough it's the 1700 at the back end that really kill you character building I think.....

    Well done to anyone who did this, especially the 312.

    Did the 167 myself. Tough day in the saddle but it was a great day and brilliantly organised. Training for next years 225 will probably have to start next week.

    It was great to have a weeks cycling in warm weather (mostly), Mallorca is a beautiful place and ideal for cycling.

    Did the 312 and enjoyed it. Had a puncture in the Paris Roubaix section but other that day it went to plan. It is a good test.
