Mallorca 167
How to ride it on these numbers
This route is 169 km with 2196 m of climbing, and almost all the real work sits in the first half through the Serra de Tramuntana. From Platja de Muro to Pollença you roll fast, then Coll de Femenia and Puig Major stack the longest, steadiest efforts. After Sóller the road along the coast with Coll d'en Bleda, Sa Pedrissa and Coll d'en Claret is punchy but shorter, before easier terrain via Sa Granja and Lloseta back to Platja de Muro.
A good time here comes from riding the early climbs just below your limit and then keeping momentum once the profile eases. Use the flat start to settle, not to chase Mallorca 312 groups. On Coll de Femenia sit near 78% of your 250 W FTP, around 195 W or 2.71 W/kg. Do the same on Puig Major at about 82% (205 W, 2.85 W/kg), fuelling consistently around 50-90 g of carbs per hour so you can approach your predicted 5h58 in control.
The classic mistake is letting yourself be dragged by long-distance riders, turning Femenia and Puig Major into mini time trials. That can leave you empty on Sa Pedrissa and Coll d'en Claret and crawling across the interior. Red flags: you are riding Coll de Femenia well above 78% or Puig Major above 82% of FTP, or you reach Sa Pedrissa already near your planned 350 TSS and struggling to eat your 50-90 g of carbs.
