Hearts* Posted November 7, 2016 Share I found myself doing Vissershok, Contermans and Tiekie solo midday Saturday afternoon and was wondering if this route is still safe, I have not read of any incidence lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubarra Posted November 7, 2016 Share Same as always I presume, but I try to avoid Vissershok as far as possible, seems to have gotten more busier over time, have never felt safe there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkles Posted November 8, 2016 Share I have never felt unsafe in that area from a mugging perspective and haven't heard of any incidents. But I definitely agree Vissershok can be scary with traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underachiever Posted November 8, 2016 Share I have never felt unsafe in that area from a mugging perspective and haven't heard of any incidents. But I definitely agree Vissershok can be scary with traffic.I train in that area every December. Was my stomping ground in the 80's. So I like to measure myself against Vissers and the other two. Great to hear it's still safe, apart from traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearts* Posted November 8, 2016 Share Agree i.t.o traffic, now with the roadworks at Clara Anna I find the cars rushing a bit and a few to many construction trucks...A pity as its a nice loop if you include Jip De Jager for a few hills.Good to know its not a mugging hotspot.

Pah Bear Posted November 8, 2016 Share That whole section of road is unfortunately filled with trucks due to the quarry situated in that area, but I've used the route on occasions and always felt ok. The Contermanskloof section many times have concrete stone strewn on the yellow line shoulder, but I've always managed well enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
