A cyclist has been captured on camera illegally riding through one of Sydney's busiest tunnels with a child resting on the frame of his bike.

The man was riding through the Lane Cove Tunnel, which has a speed limit of 80km/hr, towards Sydney's CBD about 3pm Saturday.

Passengers and drivers were left shocked by the stunt, while police have called for anyone who recognises the man to contact them.

The stunt was filmed by a passenger who was trailing the cyclist in a car. 

'There is a child in there...are you joking,' a woman can be heard saying in the clip. 

Police said they were more concerned with the fact the man was dodging cars in a tunnel than the child resting on his bike. 

'It is about riding in the tunnel. It is illegal to ride in a tunnel,' a police spokesperson said.

'We are appealing for help in the identification of the cyclist.'

Police said the man could face a fine up to $765 for interfering in the safe operation of tunnel.
