Hairpins and decents

[The_Break]

Hi All Capetownians and Bolandians

 

Any suggestions on where I can find some nice tar hairpins with a variety of slope, road grade, diameter, etc in the area?

P.S. Fabian C challenged me to a downhill.

No one?

Ok, so I take it there are none beside the lonely one in Franshoek and the one on Ou Kaaps.

Come to JHB and go to SBR. But you have to ride up a few hills to get to the top of the awesome descent. And then ride about 50km odd to get back to the top.

Hectic one on the climb to the pumpstation just outside Gordons Bay. Also, the road between Grabouw and Villiersdorp....can't remember the name of the pass.

 

Can't think of anything else

The glen otherside kloof nek is nice, also back side of chappies.

 

The best is the tarred section coming down from the mast
