Are you a competitive cyclist, or just like to push your limits? This camp is reserved for advanced riders. It will allow you to prepare for the season in the best conditions, with more challenging routes/climbs than usual, and at a faster pace. Full gas!
Almost everything except the flights! If you have any questions, please send us a message.
Depending on weather conditions, ability of the group, and level of fatigue, the following plans are subject to change. This is a bespoke training camp, so we adapt everyday, like a pro team!
After picking you up at the airport, we will drive you to our base camp, where you will meet your new teammates, the staff, and have your first dinner as a team. A photoshoot session will follow dinner, to take pictures of all the riders with the SCCC jersey on, while bikes will be set up and adjusted to fit you as your own.
After having your first 100% homemade breakfast, receiving equipment, and getting briefed about the week to come, each rider will perform a ramp test on a trainer to measure his FTP. When all riders are done, we will head out for a 3-hour ride to be back on time for massages, workshop, etc.
Daily routine: breakfast, briefing, ride, lunch, recovery with compression boots and Compex, massage, workshop and dinner. It's time to live like a pro! Stay focused on your training and your recovery, we will take care of everything else, from cleaning bikes to washing kits. That’s the pro team experience!
We call it the Queen Stage! After driving with the bikes to Andraxt, we will follow the amazing coastal road. The last climb of the day will be very challenging with the Coll de Puig Major. 14km at 6% average. Probably the only hors-category climb in Europe without snow at the top at this period of the year!
After three long days on the saddle, a shorter coffee ride followed by the usual recovery process will help to eliminate toxins, so everyone can tackle the second part of the training camp with fresh legs and a boost of energy. To keep with that theme, the workshop on that day will be dedicated to recovery.
After an easy coffee “slash” recovery ride on Wednesday, it's time to attack the second part of this cycling holiday with one of our favorite rides, to the Cap de Formentor lighthouse, one of the icons of European cycling. Enjoy the views over the Mediterranean sea, this is spectaluar!
This is the place you have all heard about… Sa Calobra! To boost your motivation and push you to climb Coll dels Reis - the official name of Sa Calobra - as fast as you can, we will organize an entertaining competition within the team : a Handicap Hill Climb Time Trial on Sa Calobra! Who's going to receive the Sa Calobra KOM Challenge award this week?
It's time to say goodbye see you soon! After collecting equipment, giving back your pedals and saddle, we will drive you to Palma airport to catch your flight. Hope you had a blast on and off the bike, made new friends, and will come back soon to the Sa Calobra Cycling Club!
We’ve all seen those epic photos and videos of pro riders climbing with breathtaking mountain views. That's what you will get - free of charge - at the end of your training camp. Our team will capture all those moments for you with 4K cameras and very cinematic drone shots, edited with great soundtracks that will make all your friends jealous!

Participation in this camp requires an advanced level, with a minimum FTP of approximately 4w/kg (sub-36 minutes on Sa Calobra). Reserved for riders practicing competition or who like to push their limits, this camp will be more intense than those that we organize throughout the year, with more kilometers and climbing on the program. Full gas!
Here, we prefer to talk in hours instead. Rides last between 3 and 5 hours, with one coffee/recovery ride at the middle of the week. Do you think it’s too much for you? Don’t forget that with massages, nutrition, coaching and the fact that we take care of everything else, getting back on the bike each morning will be easier than what you have ever imagined!
Every morning at the briefing each rider will receive personal goals for the ride to come based on his/her abilities and level of fatigue. We all take the road together, as a team. On the short (rare) flat sections, strongest riders will lead the group. On hills, each rider will climb at his/her own pace with a powermeter. The riders who reach the summit first will turn back down to catch the last riders. Nobody stays inactive at the top. It means some extra miles for the fastest riders and some support for the slowest ones in the last part of the ascents.
