Majorca training: April 2009 IS GO!

[Ben]

FWIW Expedia charged £37 per night B&B for two sharing.
BA and Easyjet are similar cost at around £100 from Gatwick. So depending on number of nights and factoring in transfers should be around £250, for a good 6 days worth of cycling.

Just to let you know that taxi transfers from Palma airport to Santa Ponsa are £40 one way (2 people with bikes max per taxi)!!

Jon... i have lots of Hot pant shorts you can borrow if they wont let you wear your tri suit.

[Ben]

Have look at the shuttle services, that operate, from Palma, you should be able to get something for £30 return including bike.

[Rob C]

See you there...

[higg]

Add another (or 2) to the list. Maria and myself have just booked an appartment in Santa Ponsa from 1-8 April. See you all there. Wey-hey.

Having been out for 3 sessions with Addiscombe I've made the somewhat rushed decision to join in on this trip. Blame Chloe and Belgian beer for inviting the newcomer. Booked flights today, looking forward to it, and the group waxing sessions.

[Bridget]

Ha! Luckily for you, you'll be so far in front of me you won't be able to hear my cursing

[Andrew G]

About half the club I think.

At least I know I'll be okay now if I run out of factor 50 .

I have a motion tabled to hold a either an (un)official Tri or Duathlon event on the last day of the Majroca trip

Now we could do a tri (and kick all the tourists out of the hotel pool) but I think a Du (run bike run) would be more realistic.

SO let's have a show of hands as to who's up for it and i'll think about a course. It'll be very short so as not to disrupt other riding plans.
Just a bit of fun really. The winner gets first dance with Keith at the final night social - second place gets to dance with Michelle

[Andy E]

Hmm, i'd rather it was swim-bike-swim (running was always my weakest when doing tri), but i'll be game for a

Will have to make sure I don't win though, having Keith stomping all over my feet a few days before the Easter 3-day doesn't seem like a good idea
