The fourth wedding anniversary trike tour was organised to make a memorable time. In Sydney for a short holiday to celebrate, our trike rider picked them up from their hotel. We didn’t realise until the rider took them to McMahons Point, that this is where Joanna proposed to Peter four years ago. How romantic! 😍

As for you, you have been so very helpful and your prompt responses and actions were exceptional. The way you and Fred accommodated Pete and I was greatly appreciated……” Jo

Barangaroo

Firstly, they rode past the comparatively new development of Barangaroo was actually interesting. A spectacular transformation from a disused container terminal on the edge of Sydney’s CBD into a spectacular 22-hectare waterfront precinct.

The Rocks

Secondly, it was through the most historic place in Australia is the Rocks. So they rode around part of it. 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

Next, it was along Hickson Road and under the southern end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. What a wonderful view! So far, the 4th wedding anniversary trike tour has showed our passengers so many iconic sights!

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Then, 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.

Kirribilli

After that, they rode to Kirribilli. Famous for its views, Kirribilli is also famous because of 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.

Around the corner, is 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 rider took many.

The Kirribilli Loop

Next, they did the loop which is a fab thing to do, they rode under the north side of the bridge. 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.

Blues Point Reserve / McMahons Point

After this, they rode 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. It’s where this photo was taken.

However, the hour was almost up, so the trike rider took them back over the Harbour Bridge and dropped the passengers off, back at their hotel.

In conclusion, the wedding anniversary trike tour was a fun way to celebrate, creating more new memories together.

Our passengers have been to Sydney many times, Peter worked on a lot of the buildings in the 1960s. So, back in Sydney for a holiday, they decided to do a just for fun tour on the trike. They didn’t know where they wanted to go or what they wanted to see, so our trike rider made it up and went to some of his favourite places. Fred picked them up from Milson’s Point train station.

Even as “forever Sydneyites” we never get tired of looking at the Opera House. So far, the just for fun tour on the trike has shown some beautiful Sydney sights.

The passenger is a Sydney Mardi Gras visitor. She was in the Mardi Gras parade so wanted to ride down the route to see it during the day. She also wanted to see some of the Sydney sights. Our Harley rider picked her up from the hotel.

The Kirribilli Loop was finished by riding past Luna Park and the North Sydney Olympic Pool. Already, the friends 70th birthday tour around Sydney has been impressive!

Then, it was back over the Harbour Bride, through the city to

Centennial Park

the wonderful Centennial Park. It is a lovely experience, to ride through and to stop for a short break, or photos.

With 120 fields and venues, 35+ different sports are 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 Beach + Tamarama

Riding east, along more beautiful, though possibly less well known, beaches. 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 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 north, they rode to the world famous Bondi Beach, to the south side. Here, there is a lovely view overlooking the whole of Bondi Beach. 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 was made extra 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. This is where the photo was taken.

Eastern suburbs

Then 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, the Sydney Mardi Gras visitor tour has shown Azusa so much of beautiful Sydney.

Kings Cross

Continuing 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

Down the hill and they rode past Garden Island which is the location of a major Royal Australian Navy base. Next, they rode through the inner eastern suburb of Woolloomoolloo and past 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.

Oxford Street

Finally, 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. Azusa enjoyed being in the parade but loved riding down the route on the Harley Davidson.

However, the 1.5 hours was over so our Harley Davidson rider dropped her back at her hotel. In conclusion, the Sydney Mardi Gras visitor tour was a success – so informative and such fun! Feel the Freedom! Design your own ride!

Andrew organised the Parent’s Sydney trike tour for his parents. They are visiting him in Sydney so he thought it would be a fun thing to do, also it was his Dad’s birthday. What a way to celebrate! Our trike rider picked the passengers up from his home on the North Shore of Sydney. They did the 3 Bridges tour plus some of the city.

Fig Tree Bridge, Tarban Creek Bridge, Gladesville Bridge

Firstly, they rode over a small bridge, not one of the 3. It 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 small bridges, Tarban Creek Bridge. Also not one of the 3. This spans Tarban Creek, likewise, it has nice views east to the Harbour Bridge. Then they got to bridge #1 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 – 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.

ANZAC Bridge

Riding over our favourite bridge, the ANZAC Bridge, is an experience. We think it is incredible, a work of art and design. It is main bridge #2. 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.

Kings Cross

Continuing on, they had time to ride through the city. 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.

The Swiftie Mum daughter tour was a surprise for the daughter. As you can guess, they are in Sydney for the Taylor Swift concert. Hayley wanted to do something different during the day, while they waited for the concert that night. Yes, we can do that! Our trike rider picked them up from Circular Quay. We emailed a description and map of where to meet.

It also has the famous Harry Cafe De Wheels which 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. They rode past Garden Island which is the location of a major Royal Australian Navy base. Then it was up the hill and into Potts Point.

Kings Cross

They headed east through the posh suburbs of the eastern suburbs of Sydney, including the Bays: Rose Bay, Double Bay and Rushcutters Bay. Already, the Swiftie Mum daughter tour has shown our passengers so much of the interesting areas of eastern Sydney.

Watsons Bay and The Gap

Heading North through some upper class suburbs, such as Vaucluse, they rode to “The Gap” and stopped for photos. The view towards North Head and out to the South Pacific Ocean. Watsons Bay sits on the end of the South Head peninsula. The Gap is an ocean cliff which faces the Tasman Sea, is located in the suburb of Watsons Bay. Although the cliff is a popular tourist destination, it is infamous for suicides.

Tamarama + Bronte

Riding further 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 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.

Next, it was to the Bronte-Coogee Aquatic Reserve. This extends from the southern end of Bronte Beach to the rock baths at Coogee Beach and out to 100 m offshore. It covers an area of approximately 40 hectares and includes 4,000m of coastline.

The objectives of the aquatic reserve is:

2. protect fish habitat
3. facilitate educational activities
