I would like to go for a 7 to 10 day cycling trip in Feb and would love hear reviews, opinions, etc on experiences with any of the following:
Stephen Roche - Majorca
Graham Baxter - Costa Blanca
Bike N Bed - Denia, Espana
OR any other recommendations.
I am a single, traveling alone, and a Cat IV
Thanks.
David

Different cycling camp from Roche on Majorca . My wife and I are making plans to attend the last week in February. Lots of New York people have gone and speak highly of the experience. Seems like the camp doesn't get full underway till March, but there are rides in February. If my wife and I go, we'll go in February. Right now, there's about a 90% chance we'll go. Just waiting to hear some final details from the camp.

"Try emailing Wendy at ""[email protected]"". She's getting me pricing information and other details.
I've been to Majorca before - first week in February a couple of years ago. Weather was ""cool"". Like in the 50's and 60's. It was great riding. I understand the temperature in Majorca is unpredictable that time of year. Could get some downright cold days. Not likely it'll be anywhere near as cold as it is in New York in February."

Link ALIVE - Prices available!!
Try this link to see what the educated consumer is paying -
http://www.bicycle-holidays.com/preise/direktpreise.pdf
37 Euro per day per person double occupancy at the Playa de Muro (+ 55 Euro Airport/Hotel/Airport transfer + about 65 Euro for Sports Package. Add ~$200 for Hajo's fee (tough work making a couple phone calls or booking online) and there's your price. Plus Flug, of course.
Flights are about $600 with Iberia or Hajo can make the flight reservations for say a $200 fee. Payable in advance of course.

Search function
Given how many times the search function seems to be needed, overlooked by posters, and then followed by some less than courteous remarks, wouldn’t it make sense to highlight the button by using a banner, or side bar, or pop up, or something that advertises its existence more openly and clearly.
