The passengers are in Sydney for a holiday and were given Gift Vouchers for Christmas. They chose to do an Eastern suburbs trike tour. Craig met them at outside The Bucket List, Bondi Beach. They rode to North Bondi and then down to Coogee via Tamarama Beach, Bronte Beach, and Clovelly Beach. They then returned to Bondi Beach to be dropped off.

The Eastern suburbs trike tour was a great Christmas present and a good way for visitors to Sydney to see lots in a short time.

Bronte Beach is a small but popular recreational beach in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. It is 2 kilometres south of Bondi Beach and north of the much larger Coogee Beach.

Tamarama is 6 kilometres east of the Sydney CBD and 1 kilometre south of Bondu Beach. It is affectionately nicknamed Glamarama (or Glamourama) by the locals, as it is a beach where wannabe trend setters come to sunbathe and swim or simply try to be seen. The suburb is mostly residential and the beach and adjacent parklands have been popular places for recreation such as swimming, surfing, sunbaking and picnics for more than a century.

Coogee is 8 kilometres south-east of the CBD, and is also a part of the Eastern Suburbs region. The Tasman Sea and Coogee Bay along with Coogee Beach lie towards the eastern side of the suburb. The beach is popular among families and famous for its safe swimming conditions.


Our passengers are on a cruise ship which docked in Sydney for 3 days. Some of them hadn’t been to Sydney before so they wanted to see the sights, especially the Eastern Suburbs such as Bondi Beach and Watsons Bay. The funnest way to explore Sydney is on a trike and sidecar tour.

Craig and Steve our trike riders and Len our sidecar rider picked them up from the White Bay Cruise Terminal. This is where their ship is docked. They drove over the fabulous ANZAC Bridge and then rode up Oxford Street, this is where the Mardi Gras Parade goes up. Next to Centennial Park and onto Bronte, where a blanketing sea fog rolled in just in time to obscure any veiw of the ocean. They continued north along the coastline to lovely Tamarama, and the famous Bondi Beach. Then to The Gap with it’s beautiful view to the ocean and Watson’s Bay. After a look around there they continued through Rose Bay and Double Bay before returning to their cruise ship at White Bay Cruise terminal.

They had such a fun time and saw a lot in 2 hours on the trike and sidecar tour. Even the fog added to the experience.

A trike tour of 3 bridges was definitely an experience our passengers wanted to do. They met Steve at Circular Quay and he rode them around on the tour. The first bridge was the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge. In our 12 years of doing tours, we never tire of seeing the arch from below. It is a great view from the trikes and Harleys as there is no roof to stop the view. First stop was Blues Point with the gorgeous view across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.

They continued on into the lower north shore suburbs which led them to the inner western suburbs. There they rode over the second major bridge, the Gladesville Bridge. It has wonderful views along the Parramatta River to the Harbour Bridge. It is good seeing the city and the Harbour Bridge from a different perspective.

The Gladesville Bridge leads onto the main arterial road, Victoria Road. They travelled on it for a short time before turning off into the suburbs of Drummoyne and Leichhardt where they followed the Bay Run. It is a 7 km walkway used by walkers, joggers, dog walkers and bicycles. It follows around Iron Cove which is part of the Parramatta River.

Then onto the third bridge the fabulous ANZAC 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 WW1. An Australian Flag flies atop the eastern pylon and a New Zealand Flag flies atop the western pylon.

Each of the bridges has an interesting history and each is constructed very differently so the trike tour of 3 bridges is a good ride to do. Also, each bridge has beautiful views from it.

Lucy bought the tour over Harbour Bridge as a surprise present for her husband. He did get a huge surprise when he saw the trike out the front of their house. Craig picked them up from their house and rode across the Sydney Harbour Bridge to Blues Point. They stopped for photos and got off the trike to check out the wonderful view across the harbour.

They then continued on to Jeffrey Street Wharf which also has wonderful views across the Harbour to the Opera House. Next they rode up to Cremorne before riding back over the bridge and down Macquarie street and past Hyde park before returning to Pyrmont. So if you want to surprise someone special do a tour over Harbour Bridge or in fact, anywhere in Sydney or the greater Sydney area.

Lucy wrote to us later:
“Hi Katrina,
That was awesome! We enjoyed every minute of that! My husband was very surprised when he saw a trike outside our house :)) He loved it! Thanks a lot for such an experience!
Thanks a lot,
Lucy”

Mum and daughter are on a short holiday from Manchester, UK. They organised the 3 bridges Harley ride with us so Jungle and Phil picked them up from their hotel. They rode over the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge where they stopped for photos at Kirribilli. It is a beautiful view across the harbour towards the Opera House and the CBD.

They continued through the lower north shore suburbs to the inner west. There they rode over the Gladesville Bridge which has interesting views along Parramatta River to the Harbour Bridge. It is good seeing the Harbour Bridge from a different angle.

They travelled along a main arterial road – Victoria Road – before turning off to see some of the inner west suburbs. They followed the Bay Run around Iron Cove before heading onto the incredible ANZAC Bridge.

It is best viewed without a roof blocking the incredible architecture. In fact, all the bridges are best viewed from a Harley or a trike with nothing blocking the skyline. Then they rode back to drop off in the Rocks to continue exploring.

The passengers loved it and would do the 3 bridges Harley ride again in an instant.

This Sydney bridge trike tour was a present to our passengers. Craig picked them up at Circular Quay and rode them over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. They stopped at Blues Point for photos and to see the beautiful views across the water to Sydney city and the Opera House.

Next stop, just a few kilometers away is Jeffrey Street Wharf in Kirribilli. It is still on the north side and it also has beautiful views across the harbour to Sydney city and the Opera House. Not to forget the Harbour Bridge and the different perspective both places give it.

They travelled around the north side to a few other areas before riding back across the Sydney Harbour Bridge to their drop off point. You can see by their smiles that this Sydney bridge trike tour present was a great idea.

Our passengers arrived in Sydney on a cruise ship and didn’t want to waste the two days they were here for. They prearranged with us to do the Southern Spectacular trike tour. Brian picked them up from their hotel room and rode them through the Royal National Park. It is the oldest National Park in Australia, the second oldest in the world.

They continued on to Stanwell Tops where there are beautiful views along the coastline and the South Pacific Ocean. A lot of hang gliders use this as their base to jump off, which is interesting to watch. Next they followed the coastline down and across the amazing Sea Cliff Bridge. It is a balanced cantilever bridge and cost $52 million to build.

They then headed back to Sydney via the freeway. This way they received a taste of both the coastal meandering and the faster paced road. The 4 hour Southern Spectacular trike tour is a great way to see the southern area of Sydney.

They wrote: “Hi Katrina,
We are headed home today so I will write a review in a day or so.  We had a great time and Brian was an excellent guide. I would recommend the trip to anyone I know heading here for a visit.  
Thank you and happy New Years.”

Craig picked our passengers up from North Sydney Railway Station. This meant they could do a Kirribilli, Blues Point and Cremorne Point trike tour before heading over the Sydney Harbour Bridge to be dropped off at the Rocks. There are so many vantage points along Sydney Harbour to stop and enjoy the beautiful views.

Debbie and Gary had such a great time, they wrote: “We had a fantastic time. Brilliant. Could not stop smiling. Thanks again. Debbie”.

If you want to do a Kirribilli, Blues Point and Cremorne Point trike tour, let us know. We can show you ares of Sydney you would never have heard of before.

Cremorne Point is a harbourside suburb located 6 kilometres north of the CBD. Cremorne was named after the Cremorne Gardens in London, a popular pleasure ground in England, which derives from Gaelic words meaning ‘boundary’ and ‘chieftain’.

This Harbour Bridge trike rides was a Christmas present to our passengers. Craig picked them up at Circular Quay and took them on the ride of their life. They rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge to Blues Point Reserve. The beautiful view is marred by fencing being put up for the New Year’s Eve fireworks. Nevertheless, it is still beautiful to look across Sydney Harbour to the Opera House ans the Harbour Bridge.

They also stopped at Jeffrey Street Wharf. It has beautiful views across the harbour as well but from a different perspective. Then they rode back over the Harbour Bridge to the Royal Botanical Gardens and past Mrs Macquarie’s Chair. Next they drove through Woolloomooloo and Kings Cross before being dropped off to continue exploring Sydney on foot.

The Harbour Bridge trike rides was a hit with the passengers. They loved it and who wouldn’t! To feel the breeze on your face, see the beautiful city of Sydney without being in a metal cage (car) is a great feeling.

Lauren organised a Harley ride Watsons Bay Sydney for herself and Brett. It was a great idea for a Christmas present. They have been looking at Harleys in a dealership and thinking it would be fun to buy one. They had never been on a bike so Lauren thought it a good idea to experience it first.

Jungle and Pat picked them up from Circular Quay and took them on a ride through the city. Around the Royal Botancial Gardens, past Mrs Macquarie’s Chair to Wolloomoolo and through the infamous Kings Cross. Next was a nice ride through the eastern suburbs to the pretty Watsons Bay and The Gap. Then they rode past a packed Bondi Beach before being dropped off at Icebergs, Bondi Beach.

For those who follow the NRL, we found out later that our passenger is Brett “Noddy” Kimmorley. He was an Australian former professional rugby league footballer of the 1990s and 2000s.

Lauren wrote: Hello Katrina,
Thank you so much for sending these through (photos). It was such a great day. We just loved it. Happy to have any of these on the website. We posted stuff on Instagram but we couldn’t find you guys to tag you into it. Would love to be apart of a ride again.
Cheers
Lauren and Brett

A Harley ride Watsons Bay Sydney or anywhere actually, is a fun, unforgettable experience.
