Getting to Rottnest Island in Western Australia begins with a fast ferry from the port city of Fremantle. I noticed a number of travellers load bicycles onto the ferry. I didn’t know why until the ferry docked.
As I rushed to get a good view of the expansive water body, bicycle owners hurried to offload and swiftly rode away. Cycling, I came to realise, is a popular activity when touring Rottnest Island especially for those who love to keep physically fit.
