Riding Porreres–Petra crossing
A flat, anonymous country carretera that turned out to be the one road a
This point-to-point line covers 2.3 km, from The es Vall road toward Vilafranca east gate — the road the graph was missing.

Captured in muntro Relief, gradient, and how to pace it
The profile is restrained by Mallorca standards: 10 m separates its lowest and highest points. The interest comes from rhythm, surface changes, exposed straights, and the way the road moves through the landscape rather than one headline climb.
Use the opening kilometres to find cadence and keep the power smooth. The route is ideal for endurance work, recovery riding, or simply exploring the island without a large climbing bill.

Why this road works indoors
muntro does not flatten Porreres–Petra crossing into a workout backdrop. The route’s bends, height, and junction order come from the road itself, while a compatible trainer reproduces the changing gradient under your pedals.
The point-to-point format gives the session a destination. There is no need to invent a finish when the real road already has one.
