Once you have paid the deposit, your place will be reserved.  However, the registration process will not be complete until the additional registration forms have been completed by you to our satisfaction.  This includes you confirming that you have suitable insurance in place and certification that you do not have any medical or other conditions which could prevent you from participating in the Ride.

3. Payment and Fundraising

A non-refundable deposit of £300 and a handling fee of £12 will be payable by you when you register for a place on the Ride as described above. Payment details and methods will be provided on the Base Camp website.

17. Governing Law

 These Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them are subject to the laws of England and Wales and the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction.

Join us for a weekend of fantastic riding on the cycling mecca of Mallorca. Over 3 days of riding we'll explore all corners of the island; the beautiful coastal roads, the tranquil interior of olive groves, orange orchards and sleepy towns and the challenging Sierra Tramuntana mountains, finishing into the buzzing metropolis of Palma.

How do I sign up?

Pay a £300 deposit (plus £12 transaction fee) now via this link to reserve your place. After you have paid your deposit, further details and a registration form will be sent to you. You must complete the registration form within the confirmation email to finalise your place on the cycle ride. To take part in the ride you are required to raise at least £2000 for the Quilter Foundation.

Day One: Palma (Can Pastilla) to Cala d’Or (90km/1,427m)

A relatively gentle start to the ride with generally flat or gently undulating roads punctuated with two leg burning climbs to hill-top monasteries to provide some breathtaking views across the island.

Day Two: Cala d’Or to Can Picafort (120km / 1,500m)

The toughest day of the ride starts out easy as we ride along relatively flat roads in the centre of the island, through orange orchards and olive groves. The main challenge of the day comes after lunch with the climb to the monastery at Lluc, taking us up to almost 600m asl. Our reward for the tough climb is an exhilarating descent towards Pollenca. In the last 30km we will enjoy flat roads and beautiful coastal views as we approach our overnight stop in Can Picafort.

Day Three: Can Picafort to Palma (85km / 1,200m)

On the final day, we head into the Sierra Tramuntana mountains and tackle the climb of the Col de Orient (808m) before descending into the charming town of Bunyola and the grand streets of Palma.
