Although most of our rides take place on Mallorca and the Balearic Islands, our 6Points Ambassadors come from all over the world supporting the 6Points community from their home locations.






6Points Cycling Challenges was conceived in 2016 as an individual rider, charity ride around Mallorca. The idea was to ride all the way around Mallorca in an enjoyable but challenging way, allowing riders to savour the views, the countryside, the mountains, the sea, and enjoy the culture. The aim was to do it in three days, staying in hotels en route. The inaugural event was held in May 2017 with 6 riders completing the whole route and we raised €6,400 for six charities in Mallorca.
Since then, we have organised 15 multi-day 6Points Cycling Challenges and raised over €267,000 for charity.
If you’re up for the challenge, sign up for our next 6Points ride.
6Points runs a number of events and has remained true to its initial vision – our events are challenging but fun – they are NOT races and we focus on rider experience as the most important aspect.
Our premier event is the annual Reverence Hotels 6Points Challenge event in Mallorca in May. It has grown over the years, becoming much more sophisticated and is now a world class event. That said, we believe the event should not get too large as it will lose its friendly, family feel and so we will keep it at manageable numbers, always under 100 riders.
Reverence Hotels 6Points Mallorca now has three routes you can choose from – the toughest is ‘Everesting’ in which the riders cover 533 kms in the three days and will climb nearly 9,000 metres, and therefore qualifying as an Everester! ‘Muntanas’ is a tough route of about 415 kms and 6,000 metres and ‘Valles’ is the ‘easiest’ route of 373 kms and 4,000 metres. Our rides are fully supported so you can focus on enjoying the riding, while we do the rest!
In addition to our main event in Mallorca in May each year, we host at least one other multi-day ride in a different, iconic location each year. We also do a number of Saturday Fun rides on Mallorca. Additionally, we host three rides on Zwift every week and we have had over 100,000 riders participate. We also run a specific 6Points Ladies event each year.
A testament to the success of 6Points is that a very large proportion of our riders return year after year to have more cycling fun!
Riding a 6Points Challenge is not for the faint hearted. They are fun but as the name suggests they are a challenge.
We provide all route information in advance, along with fitness guidance, including training rides, if you live on Mallorca, Zwift 6Points virtual training rides and even include nutritional support, but it’s your responsibility to ensure you have the fitness levels and experience to join a 6Points Reverence Hotels Challenge.
You can view the three routes by clicking on the three dot buttons under the route maps.
If you’d like to speak to us in advance to understand more about our rides email [email protected]. We can put you in touch with our Ambassadors and current 6Points riders who can share more about the ride experience.
Since 2019, 6Points has organised Zwift group rides, led by a ’beacon’ leader, including the UK’s record-breaking Olympic cyclist, Dame Sarah Storey. We offer 6Points Challenges Zwift group ride training on Thursdays at 9.55am UK time, Sundays at 11.40 UK time, and for the more competitively-minded, there are 6Points Zwift races on Wednesdays at 20.10 UK time.
Zwift has 12 worlds to choose from, including the new Scotland world, celebrating the UCI World Championships in Glasgow, and we run Zwift events based in all of them – Richmond, London, New York, Innsbruck, Bologna, Yorkshire, France, Paris and Scotland, as well as Zwift’s own Watopia, Crit City and Makuri Islands worlds.
Many thousands of individual participants have ridden nearly 700 6Points group rides between them, and we’ve run well over 250 6Points races over four years. Riding and chatting with other riders, via a headset or texting on screen, Zwift allows a highly developed, shared and engaging way to train, with other like-minded riders, when in-real-life (irl) road or track riding isn’t possible.
Riders that complete one of our 6Points Zwift rides get the 6Points in-game jersey unlocked for them in their equipment garage in Zwift. They can then use the 6Points kit at any time, and in any of their Zwift rides after that.
“I have been running the 6Points Zwift programme for over 4 years now and it keeps getting bigger and better each year! I am so proud we have run well over 10,000 6Points Zwift events – it’s such a great way to train and prepare for the annual Mallorca 6Points Challenge, particularly if you live in a country where the winter months make it hard to train outside”.
We are delighted to share some of the great coverage we have received in the media about 6Points Challenges:
