Snytjie Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Hallo, Vulgar as it might sound, I'm getting a little bored with riding around the southern peninsula/Constantia. I'm looking for reasonably safe alternative routes out of Cape Town to do 120km+ long rides, i.e. roads having a shoulder, not passing known hotspots for bikejackings etc. I know that the Westcoast road is used, but I'm uncertain about the safety i.t.o. car at high speeds. Where do you do your long rides?
'Dale Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Stellenbosch > Helzhoogte Pass > Franschoek Pass / Theewaters' Dam & Back [110 - 140 kms; 1800 metres ascent That's one beautiful route. Paarl > Du Toits' Pass > Slanghoek > Bainskloof Pass > Paarl [130 kms; 1600 metres ascent] Another beaut'
chaos_za Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Are there any good routes from Table View out to Stellenbosch side that are quiet / have a shoulder? Edit* Never mind, google maps ftw... ! Is klipheuwel quite a popular route?
Pure Savage Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 I have just done the two routes dale said. Both stunners. Was getting bored of loops around cape point red hill.
