Port De Soller?

triban

I'm planning my first trip to Mallorca this year, thinking late october. i had originally planned staying in Pollensa, but after reading a comment in another thread from a local questioning why brits always go to Pollensa, i've been looking at other locations to stay - preferably on the coast.

Port de Soller looks really nice, but involves some big climbs at the start of each days riding. has anyone based themselves there? would you recommened it? :?:

we do plan on climbing rather than hitting the flats, but could this be too much climbing too soon into the ride?

thanks for your thoughts!
