Dr. Seuss Posted September 13, 2006 Share some of you might remember that Star100 - started at Nasrec if memory serves and followed the route on the outskirts of JHB anti-clockwise. you hit krugersdorp hill after about 70km - no fun at all! i remember that even at that time the spectators were braaing on the side of the road (no topless girls though - the Scope still used stars...).

djvr Posted September 13, 2006 Share Have never done Kugersdorp hill. How does it compare to Sukerbossie, Chappies, Suikerbos nature reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cycle Junkie Posted September 13, 2006 Share From the bottom of the Hill at the traffic lights to the T junction at the end of Robert Broom where you turn right to go onto the Tarlton/Magaliesburg road, is ?13km. I measured it on Saturday morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
