2nd Trofeo Trofeo Palma Femina 2025 🇪🇸 (1.1) WE – Palma – Castell de Bellver : 129,5 km
The Challenge Vuelta Ciclista a Mallorca (English: Tour of Majorca, Catalan: Challenge Volta Ciclista a Mallorca) is a series of four (five until 2012) professional one day road bicycle races held on the Spanish island of Mallorca in late January or early February. The event is used as an early season preparatory event by many of the top teams in readiness for the bigger races later in the season. The five races are ranked 1.1 on the UCI Europe Tour.
Marlen Reusser (Movistar) beat Mavi García (Team Spain) to win the Trofeo Palma Femina, the second race of the women’s Challenge Mallorca, after a head-to-head battle in the hilly final kilometres.
The two surged away from a front group on the late Coll de Sa Creu climb near Palma, descended to the coast together and then fought for victory on the ascent to the Castell de Bellver.
Reusser led García on the climb to the finish and led out the sprint, simply powering away from García.
Silvia Persico (UAE Team ADQ) won the close sprint for third place, beating Thalita de Jong (Human Powered Health).
Reusser started her 2024 campaign with an overall victory at the Setmana Valenciana but the latter half of the season was derailed by illness and fatigue with the Swiss National Championships her last race of 2024 back in June.
