Yeah I know about Fred Rompelberg (what a site) and there are indeed Belgians that go with him, but there are other travel agencies that specialize in cyclingtourism.

the Rompelbergers are famous for riding in fast, un-coordinated packs :-P whereas the groups we ride with try to go at most in double file where possible, their group leaderse have pretty strict instructions (i.e. "don't pi$$ off the locals too much)...It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

Thanks! We've been to Mallorca twice before and have vague plans to go again someday, so I will definitely keep these resources handy.
I was curious why I didn't see more cyclists when we were there . . . I guess it wasn't the season -- we tend to go late summer/early fall.
I'm also now feeling motivated to learn a little German so I can find my way around some of these websites!
