Friend’s birthday trike tour – Donna, Helen + Kelsey 20.04.24
The friend’s birthday trike tour was a fab tour / ride. One of our young trike riders took the 3 passengers on the experience 😊. He is still learning the ropes and photos are one thing he needs to learn how to do 😁.
St Marys
Firstly, our trike rider picked the passengers up from Helen’s home in St Marys. The suburb is named after the parish church of St Mary Magdalene, which was built between 1837 and 1840. It was modelled after the church of the same name in Cornwall, UK.
M4
Secondly, the trike rider rode up the M4. Also called the Great Western Highway, it is one of Australia’s most historic roads and a key east-west connection out of Sydney. Over the last 100 years, the NSW Government has progressively upgraded sections of the highway to make it safer and more reliable.
The M4 Motorway is a 55-kilometre series of partially-tolled dual carriageway motorways in Sydney. So far, the friend’s birthday trike tour was a lot of fun. Zooming down the motorway is worth the experience!
Old Bathurst Road
Next, after riding for 25 mins or so, the trike rider turned back. He came back a different route, via the the Old Bathurst Road. This road was built about 1824 😳.
Then he rode through Penrith.
Penrith
Amazingly, Penrith broke records for being the hottest place on earth in 2023. The recorded history of Penrith began on 26 June 1789. Eighteen months after the landing of the First Fleet.
However, the hour Friend’s birthday trike tour was over three quarters of the way through, so the rider rode back to home in St Marys. In conclusion, the 1 hour trike tour was a success 😊. They loved the whole experience and will remember it for a long time, if not forever! Design your own ride!
