Hello,

In December me, my wife and our little girl will come to Australia
(arriving in Sydney) and we would like to do some tandem touring for
about a month. We will bring
our own paniers, but will need racks on the bike.

Bringing our tandem (a recumbent fully suspended carbon one I build
myself, shown in the picture) is a bit difficult. We have to take a bike trailer for my
daughter (aged 1.5), and togeher with the other luggage that is rather
a lot to travel with.
If I can not find a decent tandem near Sydney I may have to bite the
bullet and take our bike, but I had rather have not to. We may take 40
kg on the flight, and bike and trailer weigh 35 together. So that
leaves 5 for panniers, camping gear and all other stuff.....

I am looking for shops where I can rent a tandem, or buy one
(preferably second hand) and sell it back afterwards. The only adress
I found up to know is the pegasus crew in Brighton (Melbourne). Any good tips for
the Sydney area?

Thanks for all help.
