after concrete road, you head onto dirt rocky path, then you reach the top, you go over, the road splits to dagga pad, i always keep left and climb the next hill out to go down to river, it would be interesting to know where this new trail is?

 

When you go over the top it splits left and right. I haven't been to the right hand trail yet but others who have says it is just a more technical route down to the Tanie Miems.

If I'm on the same page as you, by right you mean the new trail that's at start of the DaggaPad descent, it's a super fun and pretty technical new trail that Erik built a short while back, check out page 12 of this thread for some pics. No idea what the trail's called but I dubbed it "Erik's Revenge"

And you come out quite a way before Tant Miems, so it's no that long... But you'd better make sure your brakes are up to scratch if attempting it!!

Yeah, that's the one. I haven't been down there but I will.... soon, when my wrist is stronger and I'm fit enough to get up without coughing up a lung. And yes I will take my trail bike with the 203mm Hope rotor on the front, 180mm at the back.
