    I went with them in April 2009. I had a great week even though it pi$$ed it down at some point every day. The guides are great & friendly chaps. We had Martin, he owns the company & is a top bloke.

    The rides vary in length/speed depending on your ability. We had a group of 12 or so & Martin would blow on a whistle to inform the lead rider to move over, everybody gets a turn on the front. They'll take you somewhere decent for lunch & they'll be a coffee stop at some point too.

    The hire bikes you can get through Sportactive are best described as "adequate". There's nowt wrong with them but they're a bit tired looking. You can hire much nicer tackle in Pollensa for about the same cost.

    Sean Kelly is good value, full of stories & waxes lyrical when he's had a Guiness or three.
