Dogs Posted July 4, 2019 Share START – CHECKPOINT 1 The race start is in a Northerly direction towards Schoemanshoek, an abrupt right turn take riders onto the Vergelegen road past Buffeldrift and onto the first climb of the day. The descend is fast and furious and care should be taken on the sharp bends whilst traversing this undulated road towards the R62. Riders negotiate the beautiful tracks adjacent the Kammanassie dam towards Kleinshoogte for the first water point of the day at 58km. The open gravel roads lead riders to the South, past Volstruisvlakte and Daskop, eventually reaching Checkpoint 1 at Louvain Guest Farm on the Northern slopes of the Outeniqua Mountains. hboli4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogs Posted July 4, 2019 Share From the website - from 1/2 way the same it seems: CHECKPOINT 1 – 2 From Louvain the road heads Westwards towards Ezeljacht and Herold with a spectacular ride through Paardepoort onto Heimersrivier for water point 3 at 128km. From Heimersrivier the undulation makes way for a tricky section at Die Wieg where everyone cross under the tar road towards Mount Hope. The road hugs the foothills of the Outeniqua Mountains as riders approach the water point at Mount Hope at 152km. The next stop marks the halfway point – already an achievement of note Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
