We headed off to Bugarra Selvage etc and then the climb to Lluc where we where to stop for coffee, arriving just as Flo and Darel arrived. Unfortunately Flo had a little mishap while parking.

Successful spin this morning navigated our way to the Hermita where Garth went his way and Flo and I climbed the hill and luckily the coffee shop was open. We then return and found how to return via the coast avoiding Alcudia.
