I am going on a 3 day trip to Soller in May with some of the lads from work.

Has anyone been to comment on what its like and what to expect?

We will be renting bikes out there probably from a place that has a variety of Trek bikes ranging from a 4300 26" @ €44 for the 3 days to a rumble fish elite 29er for €96 and several full sussers (26 and 29) in between.

What sort of bike would be best for the terrain around the area? (all will probably be better than what I have to play around on now)

Cheers
Matt

    No idea about MTB but the place is an epicentre of road cycling, with big climbs out of Soller in each direction. I've cycled into Soller from on top of those mountains but left again by car (partly because I crashed and knackered my wheel and leg, lol)

    Well, now it has changed and we are heading to Ibiza.

    flights were a lot cheaper!
