    If you want to enjoy really in Mallorca with your bike go in February. You will love Mallorca Routes with the incredible Almond Blossom in the field. So nice and espectacular!

    The state of that room though. A load of us went to a stag in Dublin and our rooms were tidier than that after 4 days on the Guinness, if you disregard the unclaimed pair of skid marked pants that were on the floor for 3 days that is.

    Best time is Almond tree season, With mild temps of 15 deg from the end of jan, when the buds on the trees whole swathes of the island buds burst out in bright pink, white and rose, or later on in the year if you want a cycle through the orange tree groves covered in orange blossom with the very strong sweet smell going throught the air takes your breath away and with the smell of Cacti mixed in, And to have a cycle south from magaluf 3 min outside your in the country wth lots of remote deap blue coves to go swimming in all to yourself. Palma flower market on a Sun at 7am is worth getting up and seeing and smelling the rows of flowers as far as the eye can see, And the smell of the tulips and other flowers is very nice and uplifting after a hangover :)

  • @Edmond347
    @Edmond347 3 года назад

    Very enjoyable video. But not sure what you find intuitive about SRAM. Having to press two levers at the same time to shift to the big ring is intuitive for you? Please elaborate. Have been riding with Dura Ace Di2 for years and have yet to drop the chain. Dropped it twice on two consecutive rides with the new SRAM eTap when I didn't synchronize pressing of the two levers perfectly. It sucks. Let alone the hassle of shifting when you have the bike on the rack. You surely must be joking.

    • @JulietElliottsChannel
      @JulietElliottsChannel  3 года назад

      Not joking at all. Left lever to go left on the cassette, right lever to go right. That’s SO straight forwards and easy to remember.
      Dropping your chain has nothing to do with not pushing the two buttons at the same time (which isn’t really hard to do anyway).

    • @Edmond347
      @Edmond347 3 года назад

      @@JulietElliottsChannel You didn’t address the issue of shifting to the big gear and back down on the front with two hands in any meaningful way. Or having the impossible task of running through the gears when the bike is on the rack. Also, why did the chain drop, twice, when I was shifting to the big gear? You say it had nothing to do with the levers, when I tell you it did. I was the one shifting, not you. SRAM is not intuitive and sucks compared to the Shimano Di2. I’ve yet to hear a cogent argument for SRAM. No reasonable person would argue that having to press TWO levers is more intuitive than pressing one when riding a bike. And don’t even get me started on having to take two separate batteries out to charge them. Absurd.

    You reckon it's cold in England, eh. We've got snow forecast for tonight, and I've been resigned to riding the indoor bike for weeks. I'm not interested in riding outdoors when it's less than 20 deg C. But when Spring comes around next year, I'll be itching to get outside once it's over 10 deg.
    Anyway, it's great to see you enjoying yourself.

    I love Mallorca but like most islands weather is very temperamental, we usually go first 2 weeks of May or September, May is better for cycling as there’s not so much tourist traffic going through places like Campanet but September weather is slightly more reliable. Out of an 11 night stay we’d probably get 4 bad days on average.
