A Day in Hell 2025: Mallorca’s Toughest Ride Awaits
Cycling isn’t just about smooth roads and sunny café stops—it’s about grit, endurance, and pushing past your limits. If that sounds like your kind of ride, then get ready for A Day in Hell 2025. Inspired by the brutal Paris-Roubaix, this event is all about tough roads, epic adventure, and pure passion for cycling.
📅 Date: April 13, 2025
📍 Location: Mallorca
This isn’t a race. It’s a tribute to the legends of the Hell of the North, the riders who will battle for glory at Paris-Roubaix the following weekend. But more importantly, it’s a challenge for you to test your endurance, determination, and love for the sport.
The Route: Rough, Raw, and Real
Expect a mix of asphalt, rough roads, and adventure-ready terrain. The routes have been tested, and while they’re passable on 28c tires, we strongly recommend going wider—think 32-35c for a smoother (but still brutal) experience.
This ride is about picking your line, feeling the road beneath you, and embracing every bump and shake. Your bike and your body will be tested—how much can you handle?
No Support. No Excuses.
🚫 No team cars
🚫 No broom wagon
🚫 No shortcuts
This is a self-supported ride, meaning you’re responsible for everything—your food, water, repairs, and getting yourself home. A mechanical? You fix it. Feeling empty? Better have packed enough fuel. This ride rewards those who plan well and ride smart.
What You Need to Carry
✅ Spare tubes & pump (flats are inevitable)
✅ Enough food & water (no feed stations here)
✅ Basic tools & spares (because breakdowns happen)
✅ A strong mindset (because this ride won’t go easy on you)
Are You Ready?
This is a ride for those who love adventure, suffering, and epic cycling stories. If that sounds like you, mark your calendar and get your gear ready.
