lol.

malaysia is pretty good. With the cameron highlands, genting highlands and others. There is the longest climb pro racing there as well. its pretty well developed in contrast to its stereotype. beaches are good. and food is awesome.

I went to Cyprus last year and I'd imagine it to be pretty good for road riding. They have spent a lot of money on the roads recently and they all seemed to be good quality and quiet, even the motorways - not that you'd ride on those. Went out on one MTB ride with a guide, it was ok but toned down and the company weren't really bike specific so I didn't really rate their knowledge or the £80 halfords full sus MTBS we were riding. They drove us up to the top of Mt Olympus and we rolled back down. I went with the GF and she seemed to enjoy it. Anyway, the place definitely has a lot of potential, they've started putting cycle paths in and there was a feature about the place in Cycle + recently where it was named as a future hot spot for riding. I'm thinking about going back there in the winter...

Costa del Addiscombe a.k.a. Santa Ponsa in the south west of the island, or Port de Pollenca in the north.

Keep away from Magaluf and Palma Nova unless you're after a full English breakfast with a pint of lager.
