The Father’s Day Gift Vouchers was a great initiative by Bunnings, Artarmon. They asked us to provide a trike for their Fathers day family night. We were happy to help out.

Unfortunately the weather was so lousy that other parts of the expo didn’t turn up. ? We did though. Craig was happy to get a bit wet and show up. ? As did the Elvis impersonator.

60’s theme on Family night

Helene, the organiser, wrote: “We are doing the 60’s theme on Family night. Feel free to dress up if you like. We have hot dogs, popcorn & soft serve ice cream to fill up on while you are here & some good old rock n roll from a replica jukebox. It will be a fun night”.

Above all, it was a fun night even though not as many people as were expected, turned up. Sydney weather can be so annoying! Anyway, Craig had fun and so did all the people who turned up.

Bunnings Artarmon

Bunnings Artarmon bought the Father’s Day Gift Vouchers from us. They were a lucky door prize for two very lucky dads who braved the wet and cold. We look forward to taking them on a fun and memorable experience. https://www.trolltours.com.au/product/design-your-own-ride

Similarly, we can organise the Father’s Day Gift Vouchers for you tomorrow. It is not too late! Your father, uncle, step-father or anyone you love will appreciate such a thoughtful and memorable gift. What a great experience it will be.

experience : an event or occurrence which leaves an impression on someone. For instance, we sure can organise this for your dad or anyone else you would like to impress. By the way, we are great at organising surprises!

In conclusion, we can organise whatever ride you would like for your dad or any male loved one. For instance, it can be a ride you design yourself. Similarly, it can be one of our ‘set’ routes, or it can be a gift voucher that dad can organise a the route for himself.

A family in Sydney wanted to do a sightseeing Bridge trike tour. We were happy to organise it for them. Their main aim was to ride over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. However, there was next to no traffic so they saw a lot more.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Steve picked them up from their hotel in the city. Firstly they rode through the city to the Sydney Harbour Bridge. With great excitement, they rode over the Bridge. In other words, they were finally achieving their goal.

The Sydney Harbour Bridge is famous for a reason. It is a real work of art. Check out the rivets and the arches as you ride over it. It is wonderful to see without a metal roof of a car or bus blocking your view.

Blues Point Reserve

They rode to Blues Point Reserve which has wonderful views across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House.

Admiralty House and Kirribilli House

After that, because there was no traffic, Steve continued into the lower north shore. They rode around Kirribilli, past Admiralty House and Kirribilli House. Admiralty House is the Sydney official residence of the Governor-General of Australia. Kirribilli House is the secondary official residence of the Prime Minister of Australia.

Kirribilli Loop

Then they did the Kirribilli Loop. This takes you down to the Harbour, near Jeffrey St Wharf and under the Harbour Bridge, on the north side.

After that, they rode back over the Bridge and up to Mrs Macquarie’s Point for a look at the wonderful view. From there, look west across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House.

However, time was up so Steve dropped them off at Martin Place to continue their exploration of Sydney. In conclusion, the sightseeing Bridge trike tour was a huge success. Above all, they ticked off their main aim – riding over the Bridge.

Damian organised the trike tour for his mum, his daughter and himself. The two hour Major Beaches trike tour was a fabulous choice. Our passengers saw so much and loved it all.

On the Major Beaches trike tour you should get to see the lower north shore area of Sydney and the eastern beaches area of Sydney. There is so much to see in Sydney that you really have to decide – and tell us – what you would like to see.

Craig picked our passengers up from the The Rocks. The Rocks is a very historic and impressive area of Sydney and became established shortly after the (Sydney) colony’s formation in 1788.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Firstly they all rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We reckon it has one of the best views in Sydney. Please look up and admire the arches of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Really, they are a great design.

Then they all continued riding through the lower north shore suburbs. This meant they rode through Neutral Bay, Mosman and a few of the other posh suburbs in the area.

Eastern Suburbs

After this, they rode back across the Sydney Harbour Bridge to the Eastern Suburbs. This took them through the posh eastern suburbs of Rose Bay and Double Bay until they rode up the South Head Peninsula.

In addition, this took them to Watsons Bay and The Gap, as well as other areas around here. There is so much to see in Sydney, let alone the Eastern Suburbs. The Major Beaches trike tour is just the start of the sightseeing!

Watsons Bay

Watsons Bay sits on the end of the South Head peninsula and takes its name from the sheltered bay and anchorage on its western side, in Port Jackson (Sydney Harbour). It provides views across the harbour to the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The Gap is an ocean cliff on the eastern side with views to Manly at North Head and the Pacific Ocean. Vaucluse is the only adjacent suburb, to the south.

Even two hours is not enough! In other words, just choose what you’d like to see. Tell us and we will organise it for you.

The Eastern Sydney’s trike tour was organised by Cath. She has done a trike tour with us before and loved it. She was entertaining friends who had come to Sydney. Cath thought a trike ride was a great idea to see the sights.

Cath had done a version of the Eastern Sydney Panorama. Similarly, that was her request this time. So Craig and Steve picked them up from their hotel in an inner east suburb of Sydney.

Eastern Suburbs

Firstly, they rode via the major thoroughfare of William Street to Rushcutters Bay. After that they rode through the posh eastern suburbs of Double Bay and Rose Bay. Continuing on, they rode up the South Head Peninsula.

Watsons Bay and The Gap

This leads to Watsons Bay, famous for a fish and chips restaurant. In addition, it is home to and ‘The Gap’ where they stopped for a look and photos. The Gap is a well known place for suicides in Australia.

Bondi Beach life guard tower

Craig then continued the ride down to the famous Bondi Beach. Riding past the beach really does turn heads. Moreover, they stopped at the Bondi Beach life guard tower for photos. Famous for the TV program Bondi Rescue.

In addition, they rode further south past the lovely Tamarama and Bronte beaches before returning to the city via the famous Oxford Street. Home of the Mardi Gras Parade, which happens every year.

However, the 1.5 hours was now up. Craig returned them to their hotel. In conclusion, Eastern Sydney’s trike tour was a huge success. A very memorable and fun experience.

Testimonial

Cath wrote to us:
Hi Katrina, We thoroughly enjoyed today. The guys were excellent hosts . They were very entertaining and had a wealth of knowledge.

Our Chinese visitors have said the tour was the highlight of their trip. We have actually discussed doing another tour later in the year. Feel free to use the photos from today.

Thanks again and all the best,
Cath

Jenny organised this trike tour Eastern Suburbs for her aunt and uncle. She wrote to us:

Hi Trevor,
I have previously had a ride with Craig and absolutely loved it.
We went The Gap and Bondi. If it is possible, could we add Mrs Macquarie’s Chair and Kings Cross?
My Aunty and Uncle are coming from America and it is just the best way to see the back streets in the open air.
Also, if possible could we please ask for Craig again?
Thank you
Jenny

Hickson Road Reserve

We sure could and did. Craig picked Bob + Dawna up at their hotel, the Novotel Darling Harbour. Firstly they rode past Pier One on Hickson Road. This leads to Hickson Road Reserve which is a great photo opportunity. So, they stopped for a few photos which makes for a great memory.

Next, they rode through the Rocks. The Rocks are a very historic and lovely area of Sydney. After that, they headed down to Woolloomooloo, home of the famous Harry’s Cafe De Wheels.

Kings Cross

Continuing up the hill, they arrived in the infamous Kings Cross. This is the red light district of Sydney. A very interesting drive as usually there is a lot happening. However, the area is not quite as ‘saucy’ as it used to be.

Riding further, they rode through the posh eastern suburbs of Rushcutters Bay and Rose Bay. Rose Bay has lovely views of Sydney Harbour.

Watson’s Bay

Watsons Bay was next. It is on the South Head peninsula and is famous for fish and chips. Near there is The Gap, where they stopped for a look and photos. The Gap is a well known place for suicides in Australia. ?

Craig then continued the ride down to the famous Bondi Beach. Riding past the beach really does turn heads. After that, they continued south along more of the eastern beaches. In addition, was Tamara and Bronte beaches.

However, the 1.5 hours was now up. Craig rode through the city and returned them to their hotel in Darling Harbour. In conclusion, the trike tour Eastern Suburbs was a huge success. A very memorable and fun experience.

Aaron bought his wife Melissa, the 40th birthday trike tour. He came with her on the ride. In Sydney for a short while, to celebrate her birthday, Aaron thought this would be a cool way to take her to their lunch place.

Bondi Beach

Our trike rider Craig, picked up them up from their hotel in Bondi Beach. It had been preplanned that he rode them to Sydney city via some of the eastern beaches.

Tamarama, Bronte, Clovelly and Coogee Beaches

Firstly, they traveled past the small but beautiful Tamarama Beach. Continuing on, they rode further south to Bronte and Clovelly Beaches. Similarly, they rode on to the famous Coogee Beach.

Centennial Park

After that, they headed north west to the lovely Centennial Park. It is a peaceful and lovely park to ride through. Generally you can see lots of different sorts of ducks, horses and flora.

Riding on, they rode through the inner eastern suburbs. However, time was up so Craig dropped them at Circular Quay. They will continue exploring the city after they celebrate Melissa’s birthday with lunch.

In conclusion, the 40th birthday trike tour was a success. An experience Melissa never thought she’d do. It made for a memorable birthday!

Clovelly Beach is a small and tranquil beach located at the end of a narrow bay. Concrete platforms and promenades have been constructed on both sides of the bay which are popular sun-baking spots. Access steps go into the water, making Clovelly Beach more like a large ocean pool than a beach.

The name Coogee is taken from a local Aboriginal word koojah which means “smelly place” owing to the amount of seaweed that can collect on the beach. Daily beach cleaning by Randwick City Council staff keeps the beach in pristine condition year-round.

Centennial Park was dubbed The People’s Park, when it was opened in 1888. Many people do not know it was the site of the inauguration of Australia’s Federation in 1901. The birthplace of modern Australia and arguably the nation’s most historically significant public park.

This corporate group was in Sydney for a short time. They reckoned a Harley trike tour Sydney was the best way to see the sights – and it is!

Five Harleys and a trike rider picked them up from their hotel in Darling Harbour. It was in the middle of peak hour but we still managed to give them a good ride.

Mrs Macquarie’s Point

Firstly, they went to Mrs Macquarie’s Point where they stopped for photos. The view from here is spectacular, looking across Sydney Harbour to The Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

This is also where Mrs Macquarie’s Chair is located but we can’t see it from the road. If there is time, we can stop and the passengers can walk to it, it isn’t far off the road.

Harry’s Cafe De Wheels and Kings Cross

Next, they rode through Woolloomooloo and past the famous Harry’s Cafe De Wheels. Up into the infamous Kings Cross though it’s tame now compared to its heyday. They continued on into the city.

However, time was up so our riders dropped our passengers back at their hotel. Exploring Sydney, the group continued by checking out some places to eat dinner.

In conclusion, the Harley trike tour Sydney was a huge success. Note the smiles on their faces!

Mrs Macquarie’s Chair (also known as Lady Macquarie’s Chair) is an exposed sandstone rock cut into the shape of a bench, on a peninsula in Sydney Harbour. Convicts hand carved it in 1810, for Elizabeth Macquarie, the wife of Major-General Lachlan Macquarie, Governor of New South Wales.

Harry’s Café de Wheels – the story of ‘Harry’s Café de Wheels’ goes back to the depression years of the late 1930’s.

With the world on the brink of a devastating war, an enterprising Sydneysider by the name of Harry Edwards opened a caravan café near the front gates of the Woolloomooloo naval dockyard.

Word spread quickly with Harry’s ‘pie n’ peas’ and crumbed sausages soon becoming a popular, as a result it became part of the city’s nightlife – keenly sought by sailors, soldiers, cabbies, starlets and coppers alike. Harry operated the caravan until 1938 when he enlisted in the AIF during WWII.

Catherine gave the Harley tour for birthday present to Deb. They both had a ball! Phil and Pez picked them up from a prearranged spot in the Rocks.

Firstly they rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It is one of the most iconic bridges in the world. It is great to see the arches up above your head so make sure you look up. On Harleys (or a trike) there is no metal to ruin your view.

Blues Point Reserve

Next, they rode to Blues Point where they stopped for photo at the Reserve. Similarly, to all around the harbour, it has wonderful views across Sydney Harbour. Great photos can be taken, for instance, of the Harbour Bridge with the Sydney Opera House in the background. If there are no ferries or other boats you can also see Luna Park from here.

Mrs Macquarie’s Point

After that, they rode back over the bridge to Mrs Macquarie’s Point. Similarly, this area also has wonderful views across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Woolloomooloo and Kings Cross

After taking photos they hopped back on the Harleys and rode through Woolloomooloo. This took them past the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels and up into the infamous Kings Cross.

However, time was up so they rode to Circular Quay. The passengers disembarked and continued to celebrate Deb’s birthday around Sydney. The Harley tour for birthday was a huge success.

Catherine wrote:

Catherine
Happy for you to put photos on social media.

The Sydney city Harley ride was organised for our passengers from China. Due to the weather in Sydney, their plane was delayed. We were able to postpone our riders who picked them up at a later time.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Our five Harley riders picked up our passengers from a restaurant in the city. Firstly, they rode through the city and over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We ride over it so many times but above all, it is a view and an experience we never tire of. However, make sure you look up to see the arches in all their glory. They are wonderful to look at without the roof of a car blocking the view.

Blues Point Reserve

We like to take our passengers somewhere with a good backdrop to take photos. So they stopped at Blues Point for photos and to admire the view. It is a spectacular view across Sydney Harbour towards the Opera House and the CBD.

Lower North Shore

Next, they rode up into Neutral Bay, part of the lower North Shore of Sydney. It is interesting to see the shops but be careful what time of day you go. The main thoroughfare, Military Road, get extremely busy.

Mrs Macquarie’s Point

After that, they rode back over The Bridge to Mrs Macquarie’s Point. Another Sydney icon is Mrs Macquarie’s Chair but you can’t see it from the road. Depending on the tour you are doing, we can stop so you can do the quick walk to it. This route also takes you past the Art Gallery of New South Wales. It is a beautiful and imposing building.

However, time was up so our Harley riders dropped the passengers back at their hotel. In conclusion, the Sydney city Harley ride was a success. Our passengers saw many of the famous sights and enjoyed being on the back of a Harley. https://www.trolltours.com.au/tours-and-prices/

George organised the Harley north shore ride. He and his wife are down from Dubbo to do the City to Surf tomorrow. Dubbo is about 400 km north west of Sydney. So, why not do something fun and see the sights at the same time!? George is glad he did.

Sydney Harbour Bridge and Kirribilli

Our Harley rider Phil, picked George up from their hotel in the city. Firstly, he took him over the Sydney Harbour Bridge to Kirribilli, on the north side of the Harbour Bridge. There, they stopped for photos and a look at the wonderful views across Sydney Harbour towards the Sydney Opera House and the CBD. A view we never tire of. In addition, it also has an up-close view of the side and underneath of the bridge.

Bradleys Head

Continuing on, they headed down to Bradleys Head. Bradleys Head is a headland protruding from the north shore of Sydney Harbour. In addition, on the way down you will ride past Taronga Zoo. For instance, you may see koalas eating their leaves from the tree tops.

Balmoral Beach

After that, they rode past Balmoral Beach. The Promenade along the Esplanade at Balmoral Beach was completed in 1926. It really is a lovely place and very popular with Sydneysiders during summer. It is a very safe place for a swim.

The Spit Bridge

Next, the road led to the Spit Bridge lookout, where this photo was taken. It has beautiful views towards Middle Harbour and back towards Balmoral Beach.

However, the 1.5 hours was up so Phil rode George back to his hotel. In conclusion, the Harley north shore ride was a huge success and George couldn’t keep the smile off his face.

The Lower North Shore refers to the northern suburbs of Sydney adjoining Sydney Harbour. The three bodies of water that surround the Lower North Shore are Lane Cove River on its western border, Sydney Harbour on its south side, and Middle Harbour on its east. The Lower North Shore borders the Upper North Shore when the Lane Cover River and Middle Harbour are at their closest.
