Spectrum: On Friday, October 16th, the Tortour Mallorca will start in Mallorca – the little sister of Tortour Switzerland. The ultracycling event leads the participants over up to 500km in the cycling Eldorado on Mallorca. There are also all kinds of celebrities, such as Jan Ullrich, who will start in a team of three.
Two distances, solo or in a team
This year, for the first time, there will be two possible routes for participants at the Tortour Mallorca: in addition to the well-known long distance of just over 500 km, the shorter 2015 km distance will also celebrate its premiere in 333. The general conditions are the same for both distances: the starting shot will be fired early in the morning on October 16 at 6.00:5.00 a.m. – the finish line is possible until XNUMX:XNUMX a.m. on Saturday morning. In between there are many hours of exhausting pedaling in front of the beautiful scenery of the holiday island.
The participants start either as a soloist (333km or 500km) or in teams of two or three (only 500km). Certainly the most prominent group of three at the start will be the Rapha – Tortour – Racers. In addition to Jan Ullrich, Tortour co-founders Joko Vogel and Roy Bruderer also start in this trio and face the 500km.
