You mean the finish line is halfway up the climb ?

No guys, they are not taking us through the town centre - take a look at the old Tour de PPA, 2020 99er or Durbie Dash start if you want an idea

Given the route description is simply:

"From here the route continues on Vissershok, through Durbanville to exit on Wellington / Klipheuwel Road (R302)." 

You can see how we'd get confused đŸ˜‚

Will try an update when back at my desk...

looks like a 3rd of the way actually... this was in 2020 at least. Not sure if this remains and why

Its as the others say - old Tour de PPA route

Vissershok road, turn left at the high school and then the same as the Durbie Dash start, through Vierlanden onto Wellington road

Something like the purple line?

Heard a rumour due to Traffic there may be no Vissershoek, so just thought I would come here and will this rumour to life.

Yea what traffic? đŸ˜…

Maybe 2 quarry lorries and a milk truck and the odd Karen. Thats literally why that contermans/malans/visserhok route has become a bike jacking hotspot. Especially that time of the morning. Theres way more traffic on that bit to fisantekraal on klipheuwel rd and finishing back in dbville central.
