AndreZA Posted January 16, 2007 Share Everybody is so afraid of it that I try and steer clear. I've done it once apparently (according to some people I have cycled with) but if I recall it was just a glorified bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_BBi Posted January 16, 2007 Share Jip that is the Hekpoort Hill (tar). Think it is the R563, close to the T-juxtion with the R560. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted January 16, 2007 Share It looks right to me. I was trying to fathom out yesterday were Breedtsnek was on Google Earth and as far as my interpretation is of were it should be, that looks like Hekpoort to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanJ Posted January 16, 2007 Share It is Hekpoort, Google does tend to flatten things out alot. If you zoom in you can even see the speedbumps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Big H Posted January 16, 2007 Share Yes it is Hekpoort but not the whole of Hekpoort, it starts on the R563 at the Bekkerskole turnoff at S25 54,724; E27 37,024 and ends at S25 57,048; E27 40,755. Breedtsnek starts at the R24 at S25 49,204 and ends at S25 49,204; E27 26,579 to the north of the Magalliesberg near Buffelspoort dam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
