Reef Lodge Backpackers Townsville

Tuesday 12 August 2014

Crikey Trikey Tours. This is GREAT FUN! And the best way to see townsville city sites. Currently doing an $80-00 special rate,




Crikey Trikey Joy Rides 
I love motor bikes, have a classic 87 custom Softail and love ridding around the city day and night. Sadly when you have to ride you don't get to take in the sights without interruption of some crazy @#$% trying to kill you. SO! When I was offered a ride on the back of Steve's Crikey Trike it was awesome. All the fun of being in the fresh, open air, of which you can only experience on a motor bike, with out the problem of that  @#$% trying to run you over.

thanks Steve.

You can get Steve to pick you up from the front of Reef Lodge Backpacker here in Townsville and he will drop you off at the finish of the ride. Steve has special for you just tell him your staying at the Reef lodge for the $80-00 special rate.
