For those of you who are familiar with this area the descent to the caves from the village and the approach from sa pobla are both in a terrible state.this roads are of particular interest to cyclists and there have been numerous incidents not to mention damaged wheels,punctures etc over the years.the council of mallorca show little interest in rectifying this despite recent successes such as the road to formentor.as such there is an organised protest this Saturday 24 January at 11 meeting at the entrance to font ufanes.you don't have to be a cyclist to support this and it is possible that team sky may be there.thanks

Thanks for the info Peter, it doesnt seem like the powers above in Majorca have much interest at all unless they are getting cash in hand. Hope something good comes out of this for you

Nice post Peter. As Mallorca attracts plenty of cyclists from all over the world, spending their money all over the Island instead of one resort. Team Sky love the Island for their training purposes, so you never know Sky TV, may do a piece on the state of the roads out there.
