Riding Port de Valldemossa
From Valldemossa along the Ma-10 to the Ma-1131, then down the cliff road to the little port at the bottom. The point is the way back: five and a half kilometres up from the sea at about 6.5 per cent, on the same road. About thirteen and a half kilometres and 390 metres of climbing in all.
This point-to-point line covers 13.5 km, from Valldemossa toward the Ma-1131 toward the port toward back up.
This is coastal Mallorca rather than a generic blue horizon: the road’s relationship with coves, cliffs, ports, stone retaining walls, and open water is what defines it.
Captured in muntro Relief, gradient, and how to pace it
This is serious vertical terrain. The road spans 389 m from bottom to top and accumulates 390 m of ascent, with sampled ramps reaching 10.3%. The profile makes the pacing decision visible before the first pedal stroke.
Ride the early gradients a shade below the effort you think you can hold. The broken rhythm rewards cadence changes and short, controlled pressure rather than repeated spikes above threshold.

Why this road works indoors
muntro does not flatten Port de Valldemossa 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.
