So on my way to the “Every Friday morning breakfast” this morning, I saw that it was such a beautiful day, a perfect day for bike riding.
So I thought of where I could go for a quick ride after the breakfast. I decided to give Breedsnek over the Magaliesberge a go.
I have done this pass a couple of times before, so I knew the roads and the area pretty well. I did not want to do a very long or technical ride as my wrist is still a bit sore after my Quarry incident of about two weeks ago.

So I set off after breakfast towards Zwartkops Raceway to Erasmia, from there I took the Schurweberg dirt-road, crossing the Hennops river towards Harties.

The Schurweberg dirt-road (S25.80842 E28.01334)

I then took the dirt-road through the Skeerpoort. (S25.82621 E27.77123)

Then some more dirt-roads all the way to Breedsnek (S25.88209 E27.44840)

And then up and down Breedsnek Pass (S25.86789 E27.44537)

I did 196km from the Jean Ave Wimpy and was home by 11am. A great morning ride, not difficult or technical at all, just nice. This is a great ride for newbies !!!!

Wow!

The roads look very good. Do you have a GPS route of your journey. Love to follow it on a map.
