Cycle Vanuatu

Cycle Vanuatu?

Cycle Vanuatu? Not so fast.

I’m not sure I heard of Vanuatu before now; but yesterday I spotted a ship while I was out riding. For a wonder, I was able to remember her name after I got home. I did a Google search; and the ship is registered there. Naturally I immediately thought about Cycle Vanuatu!

This archipelago is rather isolated; and unfortunately has few cycling routes to offer. Apparently there’s climbing involved; but both routes are rather short.

 The land there can be rugged; and earthquakes are quite common. There are even active volcanoes on several of the islands. I don’t mind keeping my distance from volcanoes!

Vanuatu seems to have more to offer scuba divers than cyclists. I don’t think I want to take up diving; I can barely swim! So I’ll have to do my cycling elsewhere.
