About us

We are Uli and Stefan. And we are Rad und Finca.

Two people, one minibus, a few dozen bikes and the conviction that Mallorca is the most relaxing destination in Europe for a self-guided cycling holiday.

How it all began

On two wheels across Mallorca since 2010

Ulrike Mavro and Stefan Lindemann are the faces of Rad und Finca Mallorca. Stefan has lived on the island since 1992 and has organised cycling trips here for more than thirty years. Uli arrived in 2006, worked five years in tourism and learned two things: how to make guests happy, and how not to.

We are both convinced that Mallorca is one of the most beautiful, entertaining and above all relaxing places in Europe for a self-guided cycling trip. And because cyclists kept telling us they would rather stay in a finca than a beach hotel, we founded Rad und Finca Mallorca in 2010. If you do not believe it, just come and try.

And today

We started with one finca near Petra and one hub-and-spoke tour through the island’s heart. Today there are five cycling weeks, a dozen houses between Ariany, Artà and Alcúdia, a PetitHotel Tour with luggage transport and a minibus that travels the whole island. And still the two of us. If you call, we answer.

We want you to enjoy your holiday and to live off the memories long after you leave. And of course we would love to see you again here in Mallorca. Bring your friends, family, colleagues and ideas on how we can make your next holiday with us even better.

What we believe in

You set your pace and your breaks

All our tours are easy and suitable for less experienced cyclists. There is no group pressure. It is about enjoying, not about speed.

No group pressure

All tours are individual and unguided. On the first evening a small group usually forms and sets off together anyway. But that is up to you.

The real Mallorca

We know the island’s best-kept secrets and the loveliest finca hotels. Not the guidebook route, but the back road where you are more likely to meet a sheep than a car.

We pick up the phone

If anything happens on the road, you have Uli or Stefan on the phone, seven days a week. Sometimes we are in the bus, then we call you back.

Maps, GPX and arrows

You get maps and GPX tracks for every stage. On top, our routes are marked with our own arrows on the road signs.

Our bikes

They are a bit like us. Just less experienced. Reliable, sturdy, honest, with Mediterranean calm.

For everyone who likes it easy

With children, with friends, with the in-laws or with the bowling club. Or maybe on your own, meeting new people with the horizon in view. You are in the right place with us.

This is us

If you call, we answer

No call centre. Two people who live on the island and have ridden every stage themselves.

Organisation, guest care, phone

I came to Mallorca in 2006 and stayed. I plan your week, book the houses, write the offers and I am the voice on the phone when you call. What I love most: spreading out the maps with you on arrival evening and watching a booking turn into a journey.

Routes, bikes, bike taxi

On the island since 1992, on the bike for more than thirty years. I have ridden every one of our stages myself, most of them more often than I can count. I set up your bike, stick the arrows on the signs and drive the bus when you want to be picked up. And I know where to find the best pa amb oli.
