Majorca Training Camp with Richard Simmonds

Pre-season performance training camp professionally guided and supported in the Serra de Tramuntana Mountains of Northern Majorca.

Northern Majorca's combination of mountains, flat lands, great roads and mild spring weather make it a popular destination for many Pro teams (Saxo Bank and Team Columbia-HTC included) for pre season training. Our camp provides a stress free environment in which to build up the endurance miles needed in preparation for key events later in the season. In addition to experienced guides and dedicated support of the GPM10 team car, group rides will be accompanied by professional cycling coach Richard Simmonds who will be on hand providing advice and feedback while you ride. This is more valuable than any advice you can get in a Lab or from books, as it is immediately relevant and personal to you.

The rides will be done at an intensity that ensures you get the most out of your week. They will be structured in a way that allows everybody to benefit from every ride. There will be elements of base miles, steady mid range riding, flat out efforts, technique when riding as a group, maybe even the odd friendly race. Everything will be geared towards ensuring improvement. Richard will organise some informal seminars to cover various aspects of cycling as requested by the riders - training, technical tips, nutrition, position on the bike -  your choice!

Our base camp will be a 4 star ecological resort situated just outside Port de Pollenca empathically constructed on a natural wetland and has everything you will need in the resort: restaurants, swimming pool, gym, wifi, café, and shops.Sports massage therapy can be arranged each day (extra cost) and prices for single rooms and additional nights are available through GPM10.
