Sometime the best rides are the ones you don't plan, just jump on your bike and ride.  For me these types of rides usually involve visiting a seafront somewhere or a nice overlook to get a great view and take in the scenery.

Casabermeja is located at the side of the A-45 a few miles out of Malaga. Take the MA-3104 out of town North towards Villanueva de la Concepcion. 

This route can be split into three distinct sections with differing surfaces and road types.

Benidorm to Guadalest - Fast flowing, good surface with mostly open corners.

Guadalest to Callosa d'en Sarria - Short straights, tigh corners, average surface.

Callosa d'en Sarria to Altea La Vieja - Average speed, some flowing corners, changable surface in harvest season.

Distance: 32.89 mile(s), 52.93 km(s)

The following paragraphs where written for a local magazine in June 2006 and are an account of my first ever track day, held at Ricardo Tormos Circuit on the outskirts of Valencia on the Costa Blanca.

This road is one of the most fun I have ridden in recent years. It winds it´s way down 800m from Majorca´s Northern coast road (MA10) to a small beauty spot with a 200m tunnelled footpath to a beach.  It is approximately 12km of winding downhill hairpins with viewpoints scattered along the way and a couple of tunnels for good measure.

Out of Soller on the MA10 the road winds its way up into the mountains with great views over the port of Soller.  The road is wide in places with some fast flowwing bends especially just before the tunnel.
