The nicest 6km of road in Mallorca?

San Llorenc laneYesterday Nicki and I did a little exploring—heading out of San Llorenc, we took the Cami des Pou and the headed north on the Cami son Drago, it’s one of the loveliest 6km of road we’ve ridden, through farmland, meadows and pine, olive and carrob groves. The little lane comes out on the Ma-15 San Llorenc to Arta road, so you can either turn left back into San Llorenc, or use the road as part of a route to Arta (perhaps coming back on the ‘Greenway’ cycle path, having ridden the wonderful road up to the Betlem monastery). The Greenway is a 2-year old ex-railway path, surfaced with a compacted clay/gravel top. We rode only three days after heavy rain, and it was firm and dry—an easy ride even on 700c x 23mm tyres.
