South African adventurer Christo Coetzer is attempting to travel around the Indian Ocean paradise island of Mauritius on a unicycle! Christo, a 23-year-old honours student at the University of Pretoria, leaves for Mauritius this week and his attempt to cover the approximately 117km of coastline should take him between 10 and 14 days, averaging 20km a day.
His journey starts from Port Louis on Saturday, 19 December.
Christo has visited Mauritius a number of times and is undertaking this adventure to promote Mauritius as a tourist destination, including the diversity of the island and its new focus on cyclo-tourism. He will be documenting the trip to produce a DVD and is hoping that his efforts will make it into the Guinness World Book of Records.
