Charles absolutely loves his trike tours. He has a disability but that does not stop him enjoying every minute of the ride. From Port Macquarie, 4hours / 400kms north of Sydney, he does one with us every time he comes to Sydney. This time his mum Ann organised the 3Bridges Sydney trike tour. She didn’t let him know about it until that same morning. Ann said neither she nor the carer would get any sleep otherwise. ??

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Our trike rider Craig, picked them up from their hotel in Sydney. Firstly, they rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We always tell our passengers to look up and enjoy the unique view. The more than 6,000,000 rivets are so interesting and the arch is so iconic.

Kirribilli

Next, they rode past Kirribilli House. Kirribilli House is the secondary official residence of the Prime Minister of Australia. After that, they rode around the corner to Jeffrey Street Wharf. From here, the views across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Opera House and the CBD are magnificent. In addition, it also has an up-close view of the side and underneath of the bridge. A perfect place to stop for photos.

The Kirribilli Loop

They rode under the north side of the bridge and continued on their tour. The underside of the northern end of the SHB – Sydney Harbour Bridge – is very interesting. The Kirribilli Loop was finished by riding past Luna Park and the North Sydney Olympic Pool.

They continued riding on through North Sydney and Crows Nest before joining River Road. It is a fun road to ride on. River Road leads to Burns Bay Road which, in turn, leads to another bridge but not one of the main three.

Fig Tree Bridge, Tarban Creek Bridge, Gladesville Bridge

The Fig Tree Bridge opened in 1963 and spans the Lane Cove River. After that bridge, they continued on and crossed the second of the bridges Tarban Creek Bridge. This spans Tarban Creek, likewise, it has nice views east to the Harbour Bridge. Then they got to bridge #2 of the main 3 Bridges, the Gladesville Bridge. It has wonderful views along Parramatta River towards the Harbour Bridge and the city.

This bridge is on the main arterial thoroughfare of Victoria Road. They travelled along for a short while before turning off into the inner west suburb of Drummoyne. Following the shoreline of Iron Cove, which is part of the Parramatta River, they saw some lovely water views. It is part of the 7 km long Bay Run. So far, the 3Bridges Sydney trike tour was just as fun as their previous rides.

ANZAC Bridge

Our favourite bridge is the ANZAC Bridge. We think it is incredible, a work of art and design. It is main bridge #3. Similarly, it is also great to see without a roof over your head inhibiting the view.

Most noteworthy, the stay cable design concept development and final design for the new bridge were carried out by the Roads & Traffic Authority of NSW. Finally, the bridge was opened to traffic on 03 December 1995 as the Glebe Island Bridge.

The bridge was given its current name on Remembrance Day in 1998 to honour the memory of the soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (known as Anzacs) who served in World War I.

However, the hour was up so Craig and Phil dropped our passengers back home. The 3Bridges Sydney trike tour was so much fun. A fun and memorable experience. Also, a great way to see parts of the city only the locals know about.

The SIL surprise 50th tour was a definitely a huge surprise. Gwen organised the trike tour for her son-in-law’s 50th birthday. Michelle, her daughter went along for the ride also.

Our trike rider Craig, met the passengers at a place in Belrose, a suburb in the northern beaches of Sydney.

Wakehurst Parkway

Firstly, they rode through Belrose and then down Wakehurst Parkway. We love the Wakehurst Parkway because the legal speed is faster than most Sydney limits. This road led to Seaforth where they stopped to see the lovely view of Middle Harbour. 

The Northern Beaches

From there they rode down through Clontarf, past Clontarf Marina and Sandy Bay. Onto Dobroyd Headland and Arabanoo Lookout. From here there are wonderful views to the Sydney Heads, both North and South. So far, the SIL surprise 50th tour was the best present ever! We then made our way to Freshwater Headland for photos in the rain and continued on past Curl Curl and Dee Why. The Northern Beaches is one of our most favourite areas in Sydney.

However, the 1 hour was almost up Craig turned around and took the wet passengers home. In conclusion, the SIL surprise 50th tour was a huge success. He’d like this present again please!! ?

Arabanoo lookout at Dobroyd Head offers fantastic views over to North Head and South Head and the expansive Pacific Ocean. Freshwater Beach‘s unique claim to fame is that this is where surfboard riding was popularised in Australia by Hawaiian “Duke” Kahanamoku. Duke famously carved a board from a piece of local timber and demonstrated surfing for an enthralled crowd on 10 January 1915. A life-size statue of Duke Kahanamoku on the northern headland commemorates the historic day. Wakehurst Parkway is a busy road north of Sydney. It is not the type of place you would usually associate with the supernatural, but the Wakehurst Parkway has for years been linked with reported sightings of a mysterious female figure, with claims the apparition has even appeared in the back seat of people’s cars before disappearing.

Lisa + Sunteli organised an anniversary and birthday trike tour. It is their 25th wedding anniversary, it also Lisa’s birthday. So, they decided to combine the two and have a real celebration! They stayed in at the Star Casino for a mini break in Sydney. Our trike rider Craig, picked them up from outside the casino and took them on the 3 Bridges tour.

The 50th birthday Harley ride was organised by Michaela for herself. She had always wanted to go on a Harley, so what better time than now! Her son and husband came with her.

Our three Harley riders Phil, Craig and Pat, met the passengers at their home. Their home is in Dee Why, within the Northern Beaches area of Sydney.

Collaroy Plateau

Firstly, they rode past Dee Why Beach and Collaroy Beach. Next, they rode up onto Collaroy Plateau for lovely views over the beach and Narrabeen Lake. Then, they rode up Wakehurst Parkway. We love the Wakehurst Parkway because the legal speed is faster than most Sydney limits.

Oxford Falls

Narrabeen Lakes is a lovely place to ride around. So, after riding around part of it, they rode through Oxford Falls. This area is like being out in the countryside. Continuing on down the Wakehurst Parkway to Seaforth. They stopped to look at the view of Middle Harbour and the boats in the marinas.

Arabanoo Lookout

From there we rode down through Clontarf onto Dobroyd Headland and Arabanoo Lookout. From here there are wonderful views to the Sydney Heads, both North and South. However, the 1.5 hours was almost up so the riders turned around and took the passengers home. In conclusion, the 50th birthday Harley ride was a huge success, smiles all round!

Arabanoo lookout at Dobroyd Head offers fantastic views over to North Head and South Head and the expansive Pacific Ocean.

Named in honour of Aboriginal man Arabanoo, the first Aboriginal man to live among European settlers, the lookout is a great spot for some whale watching. There are a few signs and monuments around the lookout that provide some historical information about the significance of the area.

The school holiday trike tour was organised by Ethan’s parents. They wanted him to have some fun during their visit to Sydney.

Woolloomooloo and the iconic Harry’s Café De Wheels

Our trike rider Craig, picked them up at their hotel. Firstly, they rode through Sydney city to the inner eastern suburb of Woolloomooloo. This means they rode past Finger Wharf and the iconic Harry’s Café De Wheels which is always interesting. Harry’s Café de Wheels has been serving customers for over 80 years. They make delicious pies, hotdogs and more.

the infamous Kings Cross

This leads up into the infamous Kings Cross – home of the famous and huge Coca Cola sign. Kings Cross is also home to nightclubs and ladies of the night though it is not nearly as raunchy as it was in the 1970s (apparently). Continuing on, they rode through the posh eastern suburbs of Rushcutters Bay, Double Bay, Rose Bay and Vaucluse.

Bondi Beach, Tamarama and Bronte

Next, it was fun riding past the famous Bondi Beach. In this area, onlookers always seem to wave. They stopped at the famous Bondi Beach for photos, when in Sydney it is one of the places you should visit. The beach is seriously nice (but not our favourite) and we usually stop near the lifeguard station, made famous by the TV series “Bondi Rescue”. Bondi Beach is one of the most visited tourist sites in Australia. Bondi Beach is recorded by the Australian Museum that Bondi means place where a fight using boondi sticks (nullas nullas or fighting sticks) took place. So far, and the whole way, the school holiday trike tour was a huge success.

However, the hour was nearly up so Craig headed west. It’s an interesting ride going through posh Paddington.

Oxford Street

They rode through the city via Oxford Street., home of great fashion and jewellery designers. The western section is widely-recognised as Sydney’s main gay district.

Craig dropped our passengers at King Street Wharf in Cockle Bay. There are plenty of restaurants around here to eat lunch or dinner.

In conclusion, the school holiday trike tour in Sydney was a huge success. Our passengers loved every second of the experience.
