2/1/23 – Rottnest Island

Yesterday we found a place to rent E-Bikes to take on the ferry to Rottnest Island (a carless island & lots of bikes!). Early this morning Chase met us at the Tiller bike store in Fremantle to outfit us with our bikes and helmets for our Rottnest adventures. These bikes are the “Tesla of E-Bikes”! After testing the bikes on the bike trail along the waterfront in Fremantle, we hopped on the express SeaLink Ferry (1/2 hour) to Rottnest. Lots of bikes on the island & and none as fun as our’s!!! We circumnavigated the island clockwise, making stops along the way to bird, test the waters, take photos, find the Quokkas, and take in the landscape. We ended our biking adventure with ice cream cones😁. On the ferry trip back to Fremantle our bike alarms kept going off!!! We did not take out the batteries as we had done on the way to the island and consequently our unfamiliarity with the all the bike’s functions forced us to babysit the bikes😜🤣😂. All in all a fantastic day!!
