Im afraid we need more than that :) but thanks! 

 

Thats our usual weekend ride and we want to change it up a bit

 

Do your usual weekend ride at Tygerberg include the climb up to the mast at Contermanskloof?

The Jonkershoek climb as the downhill afterwards is far better than Tokai etc.

Ooooohhh.... Baracuda!

 

(Agreed, but Tokai is all we have in the dirty south!)

+1 for Hans se Kop. Similar to the mast, perhaps a bit tougher.

Some locals ride up from Sommies. They leave early, go up Sir Lowry's pass on tar and onto the dirt road to Hans. I think the top is at 1140m, ride end up with 1885m total climbing m.

It's on the road but there's a bit of riding I like to do to get a little climbing in. I call it the Kloof Neck starfish.

 

Camps bay drive

Kloof neck

Kloof road (the Glen)

Tafelberg road

Lions head.

 

Should net you around 1200m and you can grab the dirt for the decent.

What about the ou wa pad onto Noordhoek Peak? You can add the Mast if you still have the legs.

 

Yep Ou Wa Pad up - down Silvermine tar road and repeat.
