Harley Davidson ride present – Dennis 23.02.25

The Harley Davidson ride present was bought for Dennis by his girlfriend. He’d always wanted to go on a Harley so now its a tick off his bucket list – unless he buys one himself 😆. Our Harley rider picked him up near Town Hall, in the Sydney CBD.

Town Hall

The Sydney Town Hall is a magnificent building. It is also thought to be the only non-religious city building to retain its original function and interiors since it was built more than 130 years ago. The building is listed on the state heritage register.

The building’s history is a turbulent one. After decades of unsuccessful negotiations, the city fathers finally secured a land grant from the Crown in the commercial centre of the city – as far away from colonial Government House in Macquarie Street as possible. The site was the old cemetery next to St Andrew’s Cathedral, which required careful exhumation of bodies that were moved to other cemeteries.

St Mary’s Cathedral

Secondly, they rode through the city and past St Mary’s Cathedral which is very impressive, even when riding past. It’s a Gothic Revival architectural building which opened in 1928. It took from 1866 to 1928 to build and has a height of 75m.

Woolloomooloo, Harry’s and Garden Island

Next, they rode into the inner eastern suburb of Woolloomoolloo. It has the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels. Harry’s Café de Wheels has been serving customers for over 80 years. They make delicious pies, hotdogs and more. Lots of interesting photos are on the walls, mostly of famous celebrities who have visited over the years.

Also there is Garden Island. Garden Island is the location of a major Royal Australian Navy (RAN) base.

Kings Cross

Further on, they rode through the infamous Kings Cross, though it has calmed down a lot since it’s heyday – 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). Already, the friend’s day out tour on the trike was fun and interesting!

Coca-Cola billboard

Look up to see the famous “Coke Sign”. It is an advertising billboard erected in 1974 by the Coca-Cola Company. More often regarded as an iconic landmark than as an advertisement. The new Coca-Cola sign was officially turned on, on 15 September 2016, and uses a lot less power. It is the single largest controllable LED sign in the Southern Hemisphere and can change colour.

Eastern suburbs

Continuing on, they headed west through the posh suburbs of the eastern suburbs of Sydney, including the Bays: Rose Bay, Double Bay and Rushcutters Bay. So far, on the Harley Davidson ride present, the passenger has seen so many beautiful places.

Bondi Beach

Heading east, they drove past the world famous Bondi Beach, both the north and south side. This is the beach where Bondi Lifeguards of the Bondi Rescue TV series is filmed. When in Sydney it is one of the places you should visit. The beach is seriously nice (but not our favourite) but it’s good to say you have seen it – even in the rain 😊. 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.

Usually we stop here for photos but it was so crowded. Being such a beautiful day, everyone wants to go to the beach!

Dudley Page Reserve

So, they rode north to Dudley Page Reserve for photos. It offers stunning panoramic views of Sydney city and harbour but it is a flat grass field with no shade or amenities.

Centennial Park

Next, they headed south to Centennial Park. It is interesting riding through the huge Centennial Park is a lovely experience. 120 fields and venues, and 35+ different sports played in the Centennial Parklands. It is the largest community sports precinct in Australia! The history is also interesting: “Originally a swamp and then set aside as land for the water source for Sydney. Centennial Park was reconstructed as a public park and opened in 1888. Sir Henry Parkes’ vision was to create a ‘People’s Park’ in which the citizens of Sydney could ‘take in the air’ away from the Sydney town centre.”

Oxford Street

There was enough time to ride down the famous Oxford Street. The western section of Oxford Street, which runs through the suburb of Darlinghurst, is widely recognised as Sydney’s main gay district and Oxford Street is closed to traffic once a year in early March for the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.

However, the 1 hour was almost up so the rider rode through the city and dropped Dennis back at Town Hall. In conclusion, the Harley Davidson ride present was a huge success. Feel the Freedom!

learner Harley ride experience – Alexia 15.02.25

The learner Harley ride experience was booked by Alexia for herself. She is about to get her motorcycle ‘L’s so thought this may help her with a few tips. Our rider said, “I had to be on my best riding behaviour” 😆. All our riders are on their best riding behaviour while doing tours.

City of Canterbury Bankstown

Our rider picked Alexia up from her home in the City of Canterbury Bankstown. It’s around 11 km SW of Sydney CBD. It’s quite a historical area. Early indigenous groups relied upon the riparian network of the Georges River and Cooks River catchments towards Botany Bay, with extant reminders of this lifestyle dating back 3,000 years including rock and overhang paintings, stone scrapers, middens and axe grinding grooves. Europeans arrived in this area in 1788.

Rockdale

Then, they rode through the suburb of Rockdale. It was known by Europeans as Frog Hollow, then White Gum Flat and later as West Botany. The name Rockdale was suggested in 1878 by the first postmistress, Mary Ann Geeves. Rockdale Town Hall and the St George Tavern are examples of some of the Art Deco architecture in the area. Already, the learner Harley ride experience was teaching Alexia some tips.

Brighton Le Sands

Next, they rode east to Brighton Le Sands. It is located 13 kilometres south of the Sydney CBD, on the western shore of Botany Bay. It has a lovely beach and some nice parks. The beach is also commonly referred to as Brighton Beach and is known for its off-white sand.

Brighton Hotel was stripped of its licence in 1892 due to violence and reckless behaviour that found expression in the hotel and its surrounding area. The depression of the 1890s meant that many unemployed workers lived in the district and frequented the hotel, leading to a crisis for the area.

Kyeemagh

After there, they rode north alongside Botany Bay to Kyeemagh. Kyeemagh is an Aboriginal name meaning ‘beautiful dawn’. John Webb was given a 300-acre (1.2 km2) land grant in 1837 but did not settle on the land because it was too scrubby and arid for farming. In 1882, 309 acres (1.25 km2) were resumed for a sewage farm and another 311 acres (1.26 km2) were added later. The sewage farm was discontinued in 1916 when an ocean outfall was built and subdivision took place.

Botany Bay

Lieutenant James Cook first landed at Kurnell, on the southern banks of Botany Bay. On Sunday 29 April 1770, when navigating his way up the east coast of Australia on his ship, HMS Endeavour. It is now called Silver Beach.

However, the hour was nearly up so our rider rode Alexia back to her home. In conclusion, the learner Harley ride experience was fun and informative. They even discussed the best riding gear!

3 Bridges disability ride – Glen, Sean x 2 + David 15.02.25

The carer David organised the 3 Bridges disability ride for his clients. He has used us quite a few times to take the passengers who live with a disability, on a ride. He emailed afterwards, “…Sooooo good Katrina. Those guys are legends…” The full review will go up soon. Our two Harleys and one trike picked them up at their hotel in Camperdown.

Johnston Street in Annandale

Firstly, they rode down Johnston Street which is Annandale’s principal thoroughfare and north-south artery. With its ambitious 100 feet width and large Victorian villas, including the famous “witches’ houses” at its northern end, it defines the suburb’s character and distinguishes Annandale from its Inner West neighbours with their narrow, irregular streets and small allotments. Info taken from “Industrial Annandale” website.

ANZAC Bridge

After a couple of turns, they rode over our favourite bridge, the ANZAC Bridge. We think it is incredible, a work of art and design. It is main bridge #1 of this tour. 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. Already, the 3 Bridges disability ride experience was so much fun.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Secondly, 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. It’s nicknamed ‘The Coathanger’ because of its arch-based design. It is the largest steel arch bridge in the world. This bridge is the eighth longest spanning-arch bridge in the world and the tallest steel arch bridge, measuring 134 m (440 ft) from top to water level. It was also the world’s widest long-span bridge, at 48.8 m (160 ft) wide, until a bridge in Canada was completed in 2012.

Kirribilli

They turned off the Sydney Harbour Bridge and rode past Kirribilli House. Kirribilli House is the secondary official residence of the Prime Minister of Australia. Further on is Admiralty House. It is the Sydney residence of the Governor-General and one of the most historic and important residences on Sydney Harbour. The house – originally called ‘Wotonga’ – was built in the mid 1800’s.

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. What a great view of the Sydney Opera House!

The Kirribilli Loop – Harbour Bridge north side

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. As usual, the 3 Bridges disability ride on trike and Harleys, was showing some beautiful sights and icons of Sydney. Another perfect place for photos, it’s where this photo was taken.

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. S

Fig Tree Bridge, Tarban Creek Bridge, Gladesville Bridge

The next bridge is an old but smallish bridge – the Fig Tree Bridge. It 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.

Gladesville Bridge is a heritage-listed concrete arch road bridge that carries Victoria Road over the Parramatta River, from the western suburbs to the city (or vice versa). It was the first 305-metre (1,000 ft) span concrete bridge in the world and had a substantial number of engineering and technical elements that made it a world-leading bridge design and construction achievement. It was also the first bridge, if not one of the first bridges, to utilise computer programming in its construction.

This bridge is on the main arterial thoroughfare of Victoria Road – from the western suburbs to the city (or vice versa).

Bay Run

Then, they did a detour off the main arterial road through the inner west suburbs of Rozelle, Lilyfield, Haberfield, Five Dock and Drummoyne. They followed part of the Bay Run. It is a 7km long (4.3 mi) shared use path for cyclists and pedestrians that encircles much of Iron Cove. It never deviates more than 20m from the water so the views are pretty nice. 

Camperdown

However, the hour was up so the riders dropped the passengers back at their hotel in Camperdown. This suburb is 4km SW of Sydney CBD. It takes its name from the Battle of Camperdown and was named by Governor William Bligh, an explorer who had an extraordinary life. On 13 August 1806, Bligh was appointed Governor of NSW, with orders to clean up the corrupt rum trade of the New South Wales Corps. But, that’s another story!

In conclusion, the 3 Bridges disability ride on the Harleys and trike was a success. It was so much fun that one of the passengers was a repeat customer! Feel the Freedom!

Parents present trike tour – Collette + Eamon 12.02.25

Our passenger’s daughter bought the parents present trike tour, for her parents. They come to Sydney regularly to visit their daughter. They have seen all the beaches so wanted to do the city area. Our trike rider picked them up from Randwick.

Randwick

Randwick was named after the village of Randwick, Gloucestershire, England. The first stone house in the area in 1848, called Blenheim House, can still be seen in Blenheim Street. There are still plenty of noteworthy buildings from the 1800’s which were saved from demolish, thank goodness.

It’s 6 kilometres south-east of the Sydney CBD. The famous Randwick Racecourse is here. The racecourse dates back to 1833. Until then, Hyde Park in Sydney’s centre had been the main city venue for races. Dedicated ground was needed to accommodate racing’s enormous popularity and in January 1833, Governor Bourke designated land on Botany Rd, Randwick, for use as a racecourse.

Queens Park

Firstly, the trike rider turned west and past Queens Park. It is a 26-hectare urban park, set in a natural amphitheatre at the foot of dramatic sandstone cliffs, with panoramic views of the Sydney region. It’s right next to the famous Centennial Park so they rode through the gates and into Centennial Park.

Centennial Park

Secondly, they rode through the huge Centennial Park is a lovely experience. 120 fields and venues, and 35+ different sports played in the Centennial Parklands. It is the largest community sports precinct in Australia! The history is also interesting: “Originally a swamp and then set aside as land for the water source for Sydney. Centennial Park was reconstructed as a public park and opened in 1888. Sir Henry Parkes’ vision was to create a ‘People’s Park’ in which the citizens of Sydney could ‘take in the air’ away from the Sydney town centre.”

Oxford Street

Next, they rode down the famous Oxford Street. The western section of Oxford Street, which runs through the suburb of Darlinghurst, is widely recognised as Sydney’s main gay district and Oxford Street is closed to traffic once a year in early March for the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.

Barangaroo Reserve / Marrinawi Cove

Then it was into Barangaroo. In January 2023, the NSW Government opened a swimming enclosure at Marrinawi Cove, located at the northern end of Barangaroo Reserve. A lovely sheltered spot, the natural sea pool has safety netting to enclose the swimming area. A great alternative to Bondi Beach! The whole Barangaroo area has had a spectacular transformation. From a disused container terminal on the edge of Sydney’s CBD into a spectacular 22-hectare waterfront precinct.

The Rocks

Then, they rode through the Rocks, such an interesting place in/of Sydney. It’s the most historic place in Australia! It is a neighbourhood of historic laneways in the shadow of Sydney Harbour Bridge. The Rocks became established shortly after the colony’s formation in 1788 so it is the oldest residential, developed area in Australia – the birthplace of modern Sydney. With the arrival of European settlers in 1788, it was here that the convicts first set up house and shop.

Harbour Bridge southern side

Along Hickson Road was next, and under the southern end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. What a wonderful view of Sydney Harbour and the Bridge from a different angle. Already, the parents present trike tour was fun and interesting!

Sydney Harbour Bridge

At last, they rode over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We always tell our passengers to look up and enjoy the unique view. he more than 6,000,000 rivets are so interesting and the arch is so iconic. It’s nicknamed ‘The Coathanger’ because of its arch-based design. It is the largest steel arch bridge in the world. This bridge is the eighth longest spanning-arch bridge in the world and the tallest steel arch bridge, measuring 134 m (440 ft) from top to water level. It was also the world’s widest long-span bridge, at 48.8 m (160 ft) wide, until a bridge in Canada was completed in 2012.

It is the Sydney residence of the Governor-General and one of the most historic and important residences on Sydney Harbour. The house – originally called ‘Wotonga’ – was built in the mid 1800’s.

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. What a great view of the Sydney Opera House!

The Kirribilli Loop – Harbour Bridge north side

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. As usual, the tourists Sydney trike tour was showing some beautiful sights and icons of Sydney.

Woolloomooloo, Harry’s and Garden Island

Next, they rode into the inner eastern suburb of Woolloomoolloo. It has the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels. Harry’s Café de Wheels has been serving customers for over 80 years. They make delicious pies, hotdogs and more. Lots of interesting photos are on the walls, mostly of famous celebrities who have visited over the years.

Also there is Garden Island. Garden Island is the location of a major Royal Australian Navy (RAN) base.

Kings Cross

Further on, they rode through the infamous Kings Cross, though it has calmed down a lot since it’s heyday – 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). Absolutely, the parents present trike tour was fun and interesting!

Coca-Cola billboard

Look up to see the famous “Coke Sign”. It is an advertising billboard erected in 1974 by the Coca-Cola Company. More often regarded as an iconic landmark than as an advertisement. The new Coca-Cola sign was officially turned on, on 15 September 2016, and uses a lot less power. It is the single largest controllable LED sign in the Southern Hemisphere and can change colour.

Eastern suburbs

Continuing on, they headed west through the posh suburbs of the eastern suburbs of Sydney, including the Bays: Rose Bay, Double Bay and Rushcutters Bay.

Bondi Beach

Heading east, they drove past the world famous Bondi Beach, both the north and south side. This is the beach where Bondi Lifeguards of the Bondi Rescue TV series is filmed. When in Sydney it is one of the places you should visit. The beach is seriously nice (but not our favourite) but it’s good to say you have seen it – even in the rain 😊. 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.

They stopped near the Lifeguard Tower to have a look and take photos. However, the 1.5 hrs was up so the rider dropped them off at south Bondi.

In conclusion, the parents present trike tour was a real success, daughter wrote, “…had a great day! Will recommend to friends…”.

friend’s day out tour – Deb, Di + Donna 12.02.25

Our lovely ladies met each other on a previous holiday. Every so often, they meet up again. So Deb organised the friend’s day out tour because they were visiting her here in Sydney.

Macquarie Street

Firstly, they rode up Macquarie St. This street, is the location of the main governmental institutions of NSW: Parliament House, Government House, and the Law Courts Building (which houses the Supreme Court of New South Wales). There is so much history behind Macquarie St. and the buildings that front it.

In the years since its founding in 1788, Sydney had developed organically, and by the early 1800s was lacking in major public buildings, and had a complex network of narrow streets. The supply of drinking water and waste management was also becoming an issue. Governor Macquarie initiated the construction of Sydney’s first public buildings of any real permanence and set the boundaries of Sydney’s grid of streets, laying out the street in 1810.

St Mary’s Cathedral

Secondly, they rode through the city and past St Mary’s Cathedral which is very impressive, even when riding past. It’s a Gothic Revival architectural building which opened in 1928. It took from 1866 to 1928 to build and has a height of 75m.

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.

They stopped near the Lifeguard Tower to have a look and take photos. This photo was taken at South Bondi.

Tamarama

Riding south, along more beautiful, though possibly less well known, beaches. The suburb of Tamarama has a small ocean beach about 1 kilometre south of Bondi Beach and a couple of hundred metres north of Bronte Beach. It is an extremely narrow beach and deceptive for its size. Tamarama Beach is often referred to as Glamarama (or Glamourama), owing to the alleged abundance of glamorous people who sunbathe (often topless), on what must be one of the smallest strips of sand in the state (Wikipedia).

Bronte

Then, they rode further south to Bronte Beach. Bronte Beach sits on Nelson Bay, surrounded by Bronte Park. Bronte offers scenic cliff-top walking paths south to Coogee via the Waverley Cemetery and north to Tamarama and Bondi Beach. The friend’s day out tour on the trike has shown some interesting places and some beautiful beaches.

Queens Park

Next, the trike rider turned west and past Queens Park. It is a 26-hectare urban park, set in a natural amphitheatre at the foot of dramatic sandstone cliffs, with panoramic views of the Sydney region. It’s right next to the famous Centennial Park so they rode through the gates and into Centennial Park.

last minute Sydney tour – Carol + Norm 10.02.25

The last minute Sydney tour on the trike was booked just a few days beforehand. Sometimes we can organise last minute Harley and trike tours, sometimes we can’t. You can always ask us. From the UK, the passengers wanted to do a unique experience. Troll Tours sure can do that! After the tour Norm wrote, “…Great ride with Fred today, so much fun…”.

Our trike rider picked them up from their hotel.

Woolloomooloo, Harry’s and Garden Island

Through the harbour tunnel, they rode into the inner eastern suburb of Woolloomoolloo. It has the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels. Harry’s Café de Wheels has been serving customers for over 80 years. They make delicious pies, hotdogs and more. Lots of interesting photos are on the walls, mostly of famous celebrities who have visited over the years.

Bronte offers scenic cliff-top walking paths south to Coogee via the Waverley Cemetery and north to Tamarama and Bondi Beach. The last minute Sydney tour on the trike also showed some beautiful beaches.

Woollahra

Finally, they rode a different route back to the hotel, west through the eastern suburbs. Woollahra was the home of John McGarvie Smith, a metallurgist and biochemist who produced the first preservable anthrax vaccine. The suburb’s grandest residence, Rosemont, sold for record $45 million. This is the historic mansion built in 1857 by merchant banker and politician Alexander Campbell. Yes, it’s a posh suburb.

William Street

However, the 1.5 hrs was up so the trike rider rode up William Street. This is a 1.4km long major thoroughfare in Sydney. The street was named in honour of King William IV of the UK and Ireland upon its opening in 1834. They were dropped back off at their hotel. In conclusion, the last minute Sydney tour was so much fun. Feel the Freedom!

music video Harley prop – Ai Diem 09.02.25

We were contacted by Ai Diem to see if we had a music video Harley prop. Sure, we have a few Harleys to choose from. Of course, she wanted one that looks tough – Harley and the biker 😆. We organised a beautiful big, shiny black Harley and a “tough” Harley rider 😊.

Darlinghurst

Our Harley rider met Ai Diem at her accommodation in Darlinghurst. Darlinghurst is an inner-city suburb in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. Once a slum and red-light district, Darlinghurst has undergone urban renewal since the 1980s. The Darlinghurst end of Oxford St is well known around the world as the centre of Sydney’s gay community, is the yearly parade route of the Sydney Mardi Gras. The area became less fashionable once the Darlinghurst Gaol opened in 1841. Later, the area became partly industrial. A notable factory was that of Sargent’s Pies, in Burton Street, which was producing 150,000 pies a week there, by 1913.

East Village Hotel

Firstly, they did a ride by while filming in front of East Village Hotel. East Village Hotel, a slice of Sydney’s past in Darlinghurst that was once a popular meeting place for underworld criminals.

Since 1918, the East Village Hotel has been trading on the same site. Originally called the Tradesman’s Arms Hotel, and dubbed as “Bloodhouse” for playing host to violent scenes, the establishment was the haunt of prostitutes Nellie Cameron and Tilly Devine whose main brothel was located just across the road at 253 Liverpool Street. Thanks to Gourmantic for this info.

Cahill Expressway

After the video shooting and many still shots, Ai Diem got onto the back of the Harley and our rider took her to the main photography shoot. The film crew took an Uber. They rode down Crown St and onto the Cahill Expressway. It was the first freeway built in Australia and opened in 1958. The expressway is named after John Joseph Cahill, the New South Wales Premier at the time.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Then, 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. It’s nicknamed ‘The Coathanger’ because of its arch-based design. It is the largest steel arch bridge in the world. This bridge is the eighth longest spanning-arch bridge in the world and the tallest steel arch bridge, measuring 134 m (440 ft) from top to water level. It was also the world’s widest long-span bridge, at 48.8 m (160 ft) wide, until a bridge in Canada was completed in 2012.

McMahons Point / Blues Point Reserve

Continuing on, they rode on through Milsons Point, did a left hand turn and rode up a few streets. This lead to Blues Point Reserve. The views over Blues Bay towards the Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and the CBD are just stunning. All the more stunning because of the lovely weather. A perfect place for photos and music video shoots!

There were still shots, with and without being on the Harley. There was video shooting and ride bys. The 1.5 hrs went quickly but there was enough time to give all the friends and film crew a ride up the hill. The rider said there is nothing like screaming pillion passengers 😆😂.

So, keep a lookout for Ai Diem when she releases her music later this year. She is on the internet, just do a search if you’d like to read more about her.

In conclusion, the music video Harley prop was a successful time, it all went well and smoothly.

Sydney’s Southern Spectacular trike – Kevin + Monique 06.02.25

From overseas, our passengers wanted to see something different to the usual tourist sights. So, they chose Sydney’s Southern Spectacular trike tour. This tour takes our passengers approx 100km south of Sydney, through the Royal National Park and along the coast. Our rider picked them up from their hotel in the city.

Brighton Le Sands

Firstly, they rode through the city and along the Eastern Distributor. It is a 4.7km motorway which links the Sydney CBD with the south-east and Sydney Airport. They went under the runway at Mascot (part of the Kingsford Smith Airport). This brought them out at Brighton Le Sands. It is located 13 kilometres south of the Sydney CBD, on the western shore of Botany Bay. It has a lovely beach and some nice parks.

Captain Cook Bridge

Next, they rode over the Captain Cook Bridge. This bridge has good views of the river. It is a road bridge that carries Taren Point and Rocky Point Roads across the Georges River. It’s often called the Taren Point Bridge. It consists of seven spans totalling 475 m in length, with a 506 m long deck that is 27.5 m wide with six traffic lanes and two shared bicycle and pedestrian paths. Its foundations extend as deep as 67 metres (220 ft) below water level to its sandstone base. The bridge was opened on 29 May 1965.

Sutherland

Sutherland Shire is located at the southern border of the Sydney metropolitan area, 26km from the Sydney CBD. It is home to one of Sydney’s longest surf beaches. Moreover, Kurnell within the Sutherland Shire was the original landing place of Captain James Cook on 29th April 1770, making the Shire the birthplace of our modern nation.

the Royal National Park

After that, they rode along some other roads and through the historic Royal National Park. Established in 1879 it is Australia’s first national park and the world’s second oldest national park – after Yellowstone in the USA. It features unique heritage attractions, along with fascinating plants, birds and animals.

Originally known as just National Park, it was renamed Royal National Park in 1955, in honour of Queen Elizabeth’s visit to Australia in 1954. It was added to the Australian National Heritage List in 2006.

Stanwell Tops

There were so many hang gliders around today, so they stopped for a coffee and stretch at Stanwell Tops. They hung around longer than usual because it was so interesting to watch.

Stanwell Tops rests on the Illawarra escarpment, overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the neighbouring village of Stanwell Park. It is bounded on all sides by state-forest reserves and other forested crown lands. Already, Sydney’s Southern Spectacular trike tour is showing our passengers some interesting and unique sights.

Bald Hill Lookout

Above all, a part of Stanwell Tops, Bald Hill Lookout not only has excellent views but the area is also internationally known as a major hang-gliding point. It was on the beach below Bald Hill that Lawrence Hargrave, an Australian pioneer of flight, made a successful flight with his box kite, on 12 November 1894. A memorial cairn dedicated to him has been erected at the peak of the hill near the car park.

Bald Hill overlooks the iconic Sea Cliff Bridge which is where we are heading after here.

Stanwell Park

After that, they drove down to Stanwell Park and saw the beautiful beach. So far, the Southern Spectacular trike sightseeing tour was impressive. Our passengers had seen some beautiful views and ridden through the lovely National Park. Something not many people experience.

Coalcliff

Coalcliff is beginning of the famous Sea Cliff Bridge coming from the North. It is a suburb of northern Wollongong at the base of the Illawarra escarpment. Founded in 1797 when survivors of a wreck set out to find Sydney and found coal here, which they used to make a fire for warmth.

Explorer George Bass was then sent by Governor Hunter to investigate, and found several seams that extended for some distance.

Sea Cliff Bridge

Continuing on, we rode onto the Sea Cliff Bridge and along the coastline. The 665 metre long Sea Cliff Bridge is a highlight along the Grand Pacific Drive – an award-winning drive which takes is a 140 kilometres worth of coastal scenery from the Royal National Park, Loftus down to Nowra.

Bulli Pass

Next, they rode north up the Bulli Pass. The original Throsby track, which lay less than a kilometre to the south of today’s Bulli Pass road, was used from 1815 to 1844. In 1867 today’s Bulli Pass was built, the maximum grade on Bulli Pass is 14.6 per cent. Wheeled vehicles began using the road in 1863.

Sublime Point Lookout

At the top is Sublime Point Lookout which offers 180 degree views over the sea, the rainforest and the 17 beaches that span the coastline to Wollongong. Sydney’s Southern Spectacular trike tour is a unique and fun ride!

Princes Highway

Instead of riding back on the motorway, Fred took them along the Princes Highway. It runs parallel to the motorway but is quieter and has a nicer atmosphere. However, the 4 hours was up so Fred kept riding and dropped them back at their hotel. In conclusion, Sydney’s Southern Spectacular trike sightseeing tour was a success. A memorable experience and a lot of fun. Not to mention the beautiful scenery they saw along the way.

Harley tour in Sydney – Ash + Raksha 06.02.25

The Harley tour in Sydney was an experience our English passengers were so excited to do. We couldn’t get their first choice of date but we organised riders for their second option. Our riders picked them up from their accommodation in Greenwich, on the north side of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Greenwich

They were picked up in Greenwich. The suburb’s name is derived from its namesake Greenwich, by the banks of the River Thames in London. Parramatta River had been known as the ‘Thames of the Antipodes’ but no one calls it that anymore.

McMahons Point / Blues Point Reserve

Firstly, they rode through a few suburbs and ended up at Blues Point Reserve. The views over Blues Bay towards the Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and the CBD are just stunning. All the more stunning because of the lovely weather. A perfect place for photos, it’s where this photo was taken, don’t the passengers already look like they are having fun!

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Secondly, 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. It’s nicknamed ‘The Coathanger’ because of its arch-based design. It is the largest steel arch bridge in the world. This bridge is the eighth longest spanning-arch bridge in the world and the tallest steel arch bridge, measuring 134 m (440 ft) from top to water level. It was also the world’s widest long-span bridge, at 48.8 m (160 ft) wide, until a bridge in Canada was completed in 2012.

Moore Park

Next, they rode past Moore Park which is home to Sydney (Alliance) Stadium. It’s where Rugby is played. This entertainment, dining and leisure hub spans 115 hectares and includes the serene Centennial Park, all only a stone’s throw from the city centre. From watching a major sporting match and browsing farmers’ markets to going horse riding, playing golf and enjoying a range of fun indoors activities, including wine tasting.

Centennial Park

Further on, it is interesting riding through the huge Centennial Park is a lovely experience. 120 fields and venues, and 35+ different sports played in the Centennial Parklands. It is the largest community sports precinct in Australia! The history is also interesting: “Originally a swamp and then set aside as land for the water source for Sydney. Centennial Park was reconstructed as a public park and opened in 1888. Sir Henry Parkes’ vision was to create a ‘People’s Park’ in which the citizens of Sydney could ‘take in the air’ away from the Sydney town centre.”

Bronte

Heading east, they rode through to Bronte Beach. Bronte Beach sits on Nelson Bay, surrounded by Bronte Park. Bronte offers scenic cliff-top walking paths south to Coogee via the Waverley Cemetery and north to Tamarama and Bondi Beach. So far, on the Harley tour in Sydney, the passengers who have seen so many interesting places.

Tamarama

Riding north, along more beautiful, though possibly less well known, beaches. The suburb of Tamarama has a small ocean beach about 1 kilometre south of Bondi Beach and a couple of hundred metres north of Bronte Beach. It is an extremely narrow beach and deceptive for its size. Tamarama Beach is often referred to as Glamarama (or Glamourama), owing to the alleged abundance of glamorous people who sunbathe (often topless), on what must be one of the smallest strips of sand in the state (Wikipedia).

Bondi Beach

Heading further north, they drove past the world famous Bondi Beach, both the north and south side. This is the beach where Bondi Lifeguards of the Bondi Rescue TV series is filmed. When in Sydney it is one of the places you should visit. The beach is seriously nice (but not our favourite) but it’s good to say you have seen it. 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.

Eastern suburbs

Continuing on, they headed west through the posh suburbs of the eastern suburbs of Sydney, including the Bays: Rose Bay, Double Bay and Rushcutters Bay. The Harley tour in Sydney has certainly showed our passengers some interesting and beautiful places.

Coca-Cola billboard

Next, look up to see the famous “Coke Sign”. It is an advertising billboard erected in 1974 by the Coca-Cola Company. More often regarded as an iconic landmark than as an advertisement. The new Coca-Cola sign was officially turned on, on 15 September 2016, and uses a lot less power. It is the single largest controllable LED sign in the Southern Hemisphere and can change colour.

Kings Cross

Further on, they rode through the infamous Kings Cross, though it has calmed down a lot since it’s heyday – 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).

Woolloomooloo, Harry’s and Garden Island

Down the hill, they rode into the inner eastern suburb of Woolloomoolloo. It has the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels. Harry’s Café de Wheels has been serving customers for over 80 years. They make delicious pies, hotdogs and more. Lots of interesting photos are on the walls, mostly of famous celebrities who have visited over the years.

Also here is Garden Island. Garden Island is the location of a major Royal Australian Navy (RAN) base.

Domain

Then they headed north along Art Gallery Road, this road goes through the Domain. The Domain is a heritage-listed 34-hectare (84-acre) area of open space located on the eastern fringe of the Sydney CBD.

Art Gallery of NSW

However, the 1.5 hours was up so our riders dropped the passengers off at the Art Gallery of NSW. This incredible building is along Mrs Macquaries Road is the Art Gallery of NSW. Its beautiful historic sandstone buildings were built between 1896 and 1909. The Art Gallery of New South Wales began without a collection and without a building on 24 April 1871 when a group of 30 art-loving citizens established a society to support artists and promote knowledge and enjoyment of art in the wider community. In 1874 they secured government support for their project and by 1880 they had their own dedicated building, the first of its kind in Australia.

It’s definitely worth a visit, some recent modern extensions have changed the look somewhat. So don’t be disappointed.

In conclusion, the Harley tour in Sydney was a fun and memorable experience.
Definitely worth waiting for (by one day 😉 ). Feel the Freedom!

Check out the Eastern Panorama tour here! Don’t forget, this is only a summary, the route can change on the day due to traffic, weather, etc. But, you will see the major icons of Sydney.

Beach Beauty trike ride – Barbara + Norbet 05.02.25

The Beach Beauty trike ride was organised by our German passengers when they were still overseas. They wanted to see sights around Sydney that were not touristy. Our Beach Beauty tour was the perfect tour. Our trike rider picked them up from their hotel in the Rocks and took them on a 5 hour tour of the Northern Beaches of Sydney. Don’t worry, if you’d like to to do this tour, we can do it in 3 hours.

The Rocks

Firstly, they rode through the Rocks, such an interesting place in/of Sydney. It’s the most historic place in Australia! It is a neighbourhood of historic laneways in the shadow of Sydney Harbour Bridge. The Rocks became established shortly after the colony’s formation in 1788 so it is the oldest residential, developed area in Australia – the birthplace of modern Sydney. With the arrival of European settlers in 1788, it was here that the convicts first set up house and shop.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Secondly, 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. It’s nicknamed ‘The Coathanger’ because of its arch-based design. It is the largest steel arch bridge in the world. This bridge is the eighth longest spanning-arch bridge in the world and the tallest steel arch bridge, measuring 134 m (440 ft) from top to water level. It was also the world’s widest long-span bridge, at 48.8 m (160 ft) wide, until a bridge in Canada was completed in 2012.

Kirribilli

Heading east, they rode past Kirribilli House. Kirribilli House is the secondary official residence of the Prime Minister of Australia. Further on is Admiralty House. It is the Sydney residence of the Governor-General and one of the most historic and important residences on Sydney Harbour. The house – originally called ‘Wotonga’ – was built in the mid 1800’s.

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. What a great view of the Sydney Opera House!

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. Already, the Beach Beauty trike ride was showing some beautiful sights and icons of Sydney.

Taronga Zoo

Further east then south, they rode past Taronga Zoo. Interestingly, Taronga is an Aboriginal word meaning “beautiful view”. It was officially opened on 7 October 1916. Divided into various zoogeographic regions, the 28-hectare (69-acre) Taronga Zoo Sydney is home to more than 5,000 animals of approximately 350 different species. Well worth a visit!

While riding past Taronga Zoo to Bradleys Head, make sure you look for the koalas eating and sleeping in the gum trees. They did see a few brush turkeys running around.

Bradleys Head

Down the hill is Bradleys Head. It has wonderful views across Sydney Harbour to the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge and the CBD. It’s in the suburb of Mosman and is one of Sydney Harbour’s most prominent natural features. First Fleet officers observed and named it, almost every ship entering Sydney Harbour has sailed past it. It possesses Aboriginal, military and naval associations, and it has for many years been the location of various recreational activities.

Balmoral Beach

Riding on, they rode past the lovely posh Balmoral Beach. Everyone who comes here loves it! Balmoral Beach is not so well known by visitors and tourists, but the stunning natural beauty of the beach and surrounds make it well worth a visit. The Beach Beauty trike ride was showing our passenger some beautiful and unique places and views!

Balmoral Burn

Amazingly, the Balmoral Burn is the next experience. Phil Kearns AM, came up with the idea of running up Mosman’s Awaba St as a way to raise funds. It was to say thank you to the Royal North Shore Hospital (RNSH) after one of his sons received emergency care, for suspected meningococcal. It started 22 years ago and is now called The Balmoral Burn.

At its steepest the gradient is nearly 30%, and over its length it rises about 70 metres (230 ft). So far, $33.7 million has been raised! Wow!

The Spit

Then, it was through Spit, which is a suburb in its own right. It protrudes off Beauty Point and is home to the Spit Bridge, a bascule bridge opened in 1958 over Middle Harbour. The bridge opens at set times to allow yachts with high masts to pass. Crossing the Spit Bridge is fun, it has great views of Middle Harbour.

Seaforth

They headed to Seaforth lookout which faces towards the Spit. Seaforth was named after Loch Seaforth and Seaforth Island in Scotland. The land in this area was once owned by Henry Halloran, who subdivided it in 1906. The Seaforth library was built in 1887 and protected by heritage listing by Manly Council in 1995.

Manly

Of course, they had to ride past the famous main beach of Manly. Manly has several claims to fame; it was the birthplace of surfing in Australia, the first place to legalise all-day bathing in 1903 and one of the world’s first Surf Life Saving clubs. Manly Beach was the location for the first World Surfing Championships held in 1964.

Freshwater

Further north, Freshwater has a very interesting history. This is a very small part of the history:

In December 1914, Duke Kahanamoku, the world sprint swimming champion, was touring Australia. He selected timber from a Sydney firm to fashion a board modelled on those used in his native Hawaii. He gave a demonstration to the press of surf board riding at Freshwater Beach. It was the second recorded time that anyone had surfed the clean waves beyond the break in Australian waters using this Hawaiian-style surfing technique. The first known surf board rider was Manly local Tommy Walker who rode a board at the 1912 Freshwater surf carnival. (wikipedia)

Curl Curl

This is one of our favourite beaches in Sydney! The name Curl Curl may have been derived from a Dharuk Aboriginal phrase curial curial, meaning river of life. It’s such a lovely beach to ride past as it’s easily seen from the road. It was first settled by Europeans in 1858. The rider and passengers stopped for a stretch and refreshing drinks.

Dee Why

Further north, this is a very popular beach, it has been done up over the last decade. A park for concerts, a playground and restaurants across the road make it very popular with locals. It also has lovely clean sand and good waves. Already, the Beach Beauty trike ride has shown our passengers some beautiful beaches.

Collaroy

Following those beaches, they rode through Collaroy. The name Collaroy is aboriginal for “big reeds”. In 1881, the steamer “Collaroy” ran aground on Long Reef at the southern point of the suburb. Crowds came from all around the district to see the wreck that subsequently gave its name to the suburb.

Narrabeen

They rode further north to Narrabeen Beach. It is one of Australia’s iconic surfing and swimming beaches. Over 3 km of sand stretches from Long Reef in the south to the Narrabeen Lagoon entrance in the north, with 4 surf lifesaving clubs along the beach. Our Harley rider stopped for her to walk to the beach for a stretch and a look.

Narrabeen Lagoon

Next, they rode via a part of Narrabeen Lagoon (also referred to as Narrabeen Lake). It is Sydney’s Northern Beaches largest estuary system located just behind the world famous surfing beach at Narrabeen. It is a haven for wildlife.

Wakehurst Parkway

They did a big loop as this joins the Wakehurst Parkway. We love the Wakehurst Parkway because the legal speed is faster than most Sydney limits. Also, it is a haunted road!! Not that we have seen any ghosts during the day.

Mona Vale

Even further north, is Mona Vale. The main beach is 1 km long and very beautiful. The area was known as “Bongin Bongin” by the Aboriginals. The initial land grants in the district of Pittwater were not made until April 1813.

Newport

Continuing north, the 1.3 kilometres long beach at Newport has reddish golden sands and faces east. Love it! The Beach Beauty trike ride is still interesting and full of surprises!

Bilgola Beach

Bilgola Beach was next. The name “Bilgola” is derived from an Aboriginal term Belgoula meaning “swirling waters”, or perhaps “a pretty beach with steep slopes, studded with cabbage palms”. The word Belgoula was noted in Surveyor James Meehan’s records of 1814. It’s another fabulous beach and is 33 km NE of the Sydney CBD.

Whale Beach

Then they started heading south. Whale Beach is a 600 metres long, and one of our favourites. Between Whale Beach and Palm Beach is the Palm Beach Bible Garden. It has spectacular views over Palm Beach (next beach).

“Home and Away” – Palm Beach – Summer Bay

Palm Beach is the home of the long running TV series “Home and Away”. Home and Away has been on our TV screens since 1988 and the famous Aussie soap is set in a fictional town called Summer Bay. Did you know most of it is filmed here? Palm Beach is a beautiful location for the show and if you’re lucky, you may even spot the show being filmed!

We cannot guarantee it but many of our passengers have seen it being filmed. The narrow peninsular is surrounded by water on three sides: Pittwater, the Pacific Ocean, and Broken Bay, making it perfect for surfing, swimming, sailing and lots more.

Today, the rider stopped at Palm Beach and they all looked for the cast and crew. They weren’t filming today so they stopped for lunch instead.

Terrey Hills

Now it was time to head south. Terrey Hills is a very leafy suburb and in some areas semi-rural, 25 kms north of the Sydney CBD. The area was used by Indigenous people prior to European settlement, and rock carvings exist in some places. One set of carvings depicts hunting scenes with kangaroos, human figures and footprints.

Roseville Bridge

The Roseville Bridge is a pre-stressed concrete box girder road bridge. Davidson Park is underneath the Roseville Bridge and within Garigal National Park. The Garigal National Park is a protected national park. It is located within the North Shore and Forest District regions of Sydney. At 2,202-hectare (5,440-acre) in size, the national park is quite small but important. Moreover, it is situated just 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of the Sydney CBD.

However, the 5 hours was up so the rider took them back over the Sydney Harbour Bridge and dropped them off at their hotel. In conclusion, the Beach Beauty trike ride was a complete success. All the photos show three (including the rider) smiling faces, it was such a fun day.
