The 11th Mallorca Bike Week attracted 400 guests
• Once again the event was very well attended and a complete success
• Motorcycling in November in the best T-shirt weather
• Music, guided tours and a big rally
(Neu-Isenburg, November 10, 2016) On Mallorca, the number 1 holiday paradise for Germans, it has long been no longer about quantity, but rather about class. And since around 80 percent of tourists come in the summer months, those who arrive out of season experience the quality and beauty of the island particularly intensively. This year, the 11th Mallorca Bike Week, which took place from October 30th to November 5th, offered a first-class opportunity to do so - just at the time when the weather usually throws a big wrench in the bikers' plans at home.
The center of the event was once again the Robinson Club Cala Serena with its outstanding location on its own bay and its wide range of sports and relaxation options, which even includes a sea view sauna. 400 men and women were among the lucky ones who were able to celebrate Mallorca Bike Week in this unique atmosphere. SKS Reisen organized the event in a tried and tested manner and used 12 trucks to ensure the safe transport of 360 of the guests' motorcycles there and back, while the guests flew in and out comfortably by plane.
On site you could enjoy the comfort and feel-good atmosphere of the club as well as what were probably the last days of the year in the saddle of a bike. The weatherman had promised “sunny” – and he was right: with pleasantly warm T-shirt temperatures of up to 27 degrees and without a drop of rain, it was possible to rack up first-class kilometers. As in previous years, SKS Reisen had developed attractive routes in which no island highlight between Palma and Cap Formentor was missed. One of the tours was specially planned for the 44 self-driving ladies who took part in the event and led along dream roads in the heart of the island to Inca and then to a paradisiacal beach on the east coast of Mallorca.
(The DVD will be available from mid-December)
In the evenings, the club restaurants, various bars, a wine shop and the night club offered plenty of entertainment. The entertainment program included a welcome reception, three rocking gigs by the cover band “Back Home”, an unplugged concert by guitarist and folk rocker Andy Clayburn, a stylish hit party with DJ Uwe Engel, a Halloween evening with a spooky look, an American Evening with a large campfire and a gala evening, stylishly in black leather. A highlight of the event was the big rally, during which the 400 bikers from all directions headed for the monastery of Sant Salvador in Felanitx, where they were welcomed by a fragrant barbecue.
The next Mallorca Bike Week will take place from November 5th to 11th, 2017. If you want to take part, you should hurry up, because the event can only be booked as a complete package and the number of participants is limited by the club's capacity.
