Route via Rayton and Cullinan

Oi I'm gonna have to sit this one out Missus troubles, I'm sure the married okes can relate.

Riaan, let's look at another date. Even if we organise it well in advance. Early October maybe? Gives everyone a month to get their ducks in a row. Then we do a long one!

Not really, I tend to wing it most of the time. My knowledge of trails up north are shocking though.

I'm just looking for some more trails in the east. I get tired of riding boschkop, rosemary hill, zwavelpoort, railroad, etc all the time. So a trip to Rayton and Cullinan along the Pienaars river sounded quite lekker.

 

Let me know and we'll make a plan.

Do you at least know the Donkerhoek dirt road (heavily corragated) that comes out at a T-junction on the Rayton road just before it goes over the N4? As it (the Rayron rd) crests the hill before the N4 is a dirt road to the right which takes you past the quarry which can take you to Rayton (left at eventual T-junction) or turn right back to the Bronkies road and onto Oxbow.

 

I'm not sure about this Pienaars river though.

I know this road very well or at least the ones around the climb and then abck down to the railway and old Boschkop roads.

As per my previous posts, this is the route you're referring to I presume?

Yebo, but instead of turning left onto the Bronkies R104 rd we usually go right and then left onto the road that becomes the R495 and turn left to come out at the top of Rayton.

Although what I'm describing we usually do in reverse after coming off of the railway line that runs from Mamelodi towards Rayton.

uhm, no. I'm assuming I can get on that road close to rosemary somewhere?

 

Is it relatively safe?
