Braamfontein Spruit - Route from Paulshof


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I finally ride the spruit all the way to Paulshof yesterday. At my level there definitely are technical bits. Lovely ride though. Not many cyclists on the last bit. Probably won't ride it alone again but it is a really nice ride.

What time did you cycle there? We were there 7ish yesterday morning and it was not too quiet - not nearly as busy as the section from Fratelli's onwards but busy for that section nonetheless. And I agree, it is a lovely ride.

I got to the section below Fratellis at about 07h00. Lost my way slightly at the new shopping centre on Nicol until I saw a group of 5-10? riders coming across the road . Thereafter was passed by 3 crazy daredevils with death wishes about 5 km in. Exited at Rivonia and rode home to Fairlands via tar.

 

Need to do it in reverse this weekend. Lovely 49km route. Just right for my fitness level at the moment.
