A
new trend has sprouted up in Palma, and particularly around the Plaça del Rosari: concept stores that combine a love of cycling with a passion for coffee. It doesn’t feel intuitive at first – coffee and cycling? But these distinctive storefronts are uniting high-quality cycling gear, bike rentals, recommendations and, in some cases, repair service, into an inviting meeting point for cyclists and coffee enthusiasts. In this way, it’s a natural connection. Cyclists enjoy taking breaks and refuelling on their outings, while others enjoy relaxing and talking about their love of the sport. Additionally, Mallorca, with its Mediterranean climate and world-renowned cycling routes, is the ideal destination for cyclists from everywhere, making these spaces particularly attractive. Each shop brings their own approach to the cycling world, whether through sustainability or simply stylish activewear, enticing even the most sceptical to hop on two wheels after enjoying a strong, locally roasted café con leche.
