Why Mallorca Remains Dangerous for Bikers — and What Could Really Help

Answer

Why are motorcycle accidents in Mallorca such a concern?

Mallorca combines beautiful riding roads with conditions that can quickly turn risky: tight bends, changing road surfaces, sand on the asphalt and busy tourist traffic. The danger is increased by speeding, distraction and sometimes alcohol or drugs, which make mistakes more likely. Riders unfamiliar with the island often underestimate how demanding some stretches are.
