My friends and I are heading to Vieques in May, and instead of renting a car to get around, we were going to rent bikes to get to all the beaches.
We're all fit, but I'm the only one who's ever ridden long distance (and mostly just roads). I don't think we'll be doing more than 15 miles one way to anything ... I was wondering if anyone's had any experience with the area, any idea as to whether this is feasible?
You must have a car with 4WD to get to most places in the island, and I figured, where a 4WD vehicle can get me, so can a bike ... but I don't have much experience riding trails.
What do you guys think? The price is almost the same with renting a car or 4 bikes so we wanted to do the healthier/funner option, but if we don't reserve a car we won't be able to get one once we're there, and that would suck (no access to most beaches).
