yebo...had to check google earth. Much better is to start from home of the chicken pie..... and then go out to harties.

 

Agree 100%.  

 

With the current state of SA "politics", i would not advise anyone to cycle past any township or informal settlement until after the Local Gov Elections.

I have a route that I did from home to Broadacres, from there to harties, to VG, Up the concrete strips, down Dagga Pad, sattelite road and back up the R512 on the singletrack, back behind Lanseria to broadacres and home.

 

You hit the start of the concrete strips with about 70km in the legs already

 

All in all that was about 132km, Ill see if I can find the route on Strava for you.
