Mallorca, Spain · from Port de Pollença
From Port de Pollença the Ma-2210 runs 19.4 km along the Formentor peninsula, past the Mirador Es Colomer and through the road tunnel, to the lighthouse at Cap de Formentor. It is rolling rather than one long climb: 472 m of climbing in total at an average of 2.4%, with short ramps up to about 8%.
Summit elevation: 218 m

At 250 W FTP, hold about 235 W across the climb and keep the last 2 km near 242 W. Start easier than it feels.
From Port de Pollença, the climb is about 19.4 km with roughly 472 m of elevation gain at 2.4% average gradient (based on the simplified profile used by this simulator; published figures vary slightly by source).
It depends almost entirely on your power-to-weight ratio. Use the simulator on this page: enter your FTP and weight, and a physics model (air resistance, rolling resistance, gravity) estimates your time on the gradient profile.
The simulator uses a simplified segment profile and standard road bike assumptions (CdA 0.32, Crr 0.004, 8 kg bike). It does not model wind, drafting, altitude, surface or pacing errors, so treat the result as a realistic estimate, not a guarantee.
Sustained climbs reward steady threshold and sweet spot work plus a power-to-weight improvement over weeks, not days. TrainCraft builds structured cycling training plans and adapts them when you miss sessions, using fatigue science.
The profile is simplified into 56 segments for simulation; real gradients vary metre by metre. Stats shown are derived from this simulated profile and closely match commonly published figures. Time estimates assume standard road bike physics and no wind.
