TransBaleares by bike<\/h3>\n

The Balearic Islands are well-known and popular vacation destinations, especially among Europeans. While Ibiza and Mallorca in particular struggle with their reputation as “party islands” and have attracted more and more outdoorsmen in recent years thanks to successful campaigns, Formentera and Menorca are less popular. That’s exactly why Tristan and Bel\u00e9n – who comes from near Valencia on the Spanish mainland – set out to explore the islands by bike. They grab their bikepacking bikes, pack up the essentials and set off on a 4-week tour of the four largest Balearic Islands.<\/p>\n

As it is always nice to hear from other people\u00b4s adventures, but it’s even nicer to set off yourself! This is why the both of Tristan and Bel\u00e9n share the complete route over those four islands in the Spanish Mediterranean with you! Get a first impression of the landscapes, the topography, some challenges and receive helpful tips in an entertaining video episode of each island.<\/p>\n

If you feel inspired and want to follow the route, you can get the complete TransBaleares GPX data on Komoot.<\/p>\n

For them, traveling on a bicycle has become a personal project that grew from a hobby into something much bigger. \u201cFor the longest time we’ve asked ourselves the notorious question that we\u2019re all thinking of; what do I really want to do with my time \u2013 what kind of difference do I want to make in the world? For us, cycling is the key, as it answers some of the biggest concerns of our society and environment. It does not pollute. It motivates people\u2019s kindness and trust. It shows an alternative to the normality of consuming and living in general \u2014 not mentioning the major physical and mental health benefits. We\u2019re thrilled to represent companies that stand for the same qualities, and therefore be part of the Tout Terrain, Pinion and Gates Carbon Drive adventure team.”<\/p>\n
