Southern Suburbs to Melkbos & back. (Picture from Kreeftebaai)

 

The bit through Paarden Eiland is now completely deserted on a Sunday morning and the stretch from the Old Castle Brewery to Paarden Riland is so dodgy / deserted / grimy / seedy feeling that I will not ride it again alone. I did not see a single security guard or patrol of any kind, not even at the My City Bus stations. I waited for quite a while for someone to catch up, but nobody did, so I did the much more dangerous (traffic wise) link over the N1 and the Church Street bridge on my way back.

 

It is such a pity, because the rest of the route is absolutely fantastic, with stunning views.

 

Agreed, 100%.

 

I also do the N1 section to avoid the cycle route through Paarden Eiland into town when cycling from Milnerton.

i’ll ask Trailer Park for some more pics .

It’s a very sweet build he has done.

Frame is brand new and the red is spectacular, especially in the sun.

Group set is super record

Enve bar & stem (was supposed to be Deda but SA customs held up a shipment )

Deda elementi wd45 Carbon clinchers

It’s rides so smooth & carries speed so well it’s something quite special.

Not the best climber at 8,5kg but oh so worth the penalty everywhere else.

JMK1 did the build .

Conters to hoogies and back. Excl trail Z & Q.

 

Parked at conters then ride through to Hoogies, did the normal loop with Cobra and headed back to Conters to do the normal loop of Supertubes and Die Kloof, ending with Tree Charge and a coffee & bran muffin at the Dairy Shed.

 

Was bloody warm out there today. Was interesting riding when I last ate at 5pm. Legs weren't anywhere once I'd got back to Contermanskloof.
