Challenge Mallorca Femenina, a three-race event, with six top teams participating in the second edition.

While the Women's World Tour season kicks off with the Tour Down Under and Cadel Evans Road Race in Australia, the three races on the Spanish island of Majorca, January 25-27, will be the Garden Hotels-. At least six of the top teams have announced their participation in the second edition of the Luxcom Challenge Mallorca Femenina.

The World Tour teams include Movistar, Uno-X Mobility, Human Powered Health, Canyon-SRAM Zonderkrypt, UAE Team ADQ, and Serratizit-WNT.

“After last year's success, the best riders of the international peloton will start their season on the island with the premiere of the first Garden Hotels-Luxcom Challenge Ciclista Mallorca for women,” organizers said in a press release.

“Over three days, the best teams of the international women's peloton will start their season in Mallorca.

With the introduction of the UCI Women's ProTeams in 2025, this will be the first year that women's teams will be divided into three tiers: the WorldTeams, ProTeams, and ContinentalTeams, which will make the structure of women's pro teams the same as the men's teams.

The organizers of the Challenge Mallorca Femenina have confirmed that there will be five ProTeams, seven ContinentalTeams, and the Spanish National Team at the starting line.

The three-day event included the Trofeo Felanitx - Colonia de San Jordi, Trofeo Palma, and Trofeo Vinissalem - Andras.

At the Trofeo Felanitex-Colonia de San Jordi, Noemi Ruegg took her first win for the newly formed Continental team EF Education-Cannondale, and at the Trofeo Palma Femina, her teammate Magdelaine Vallière took a solo victory. On the final day, Eleonora Gasparini of UAE Team ADQ took the win.

In 2025, EF Education Autry will be promoted to a professional team and has made changes to its team roster, but will be looking for back-to-back wins this season as it coincides with a training camp in Mallorca just before the race.
