Deicided to go for a ride this am, no real plan or destination in mind, thought it would work itself out as it usually does, my GPS was acting up again and not calibrating, so I just followed my nose a bit.

headed Pretoria north, as far as amersfort then meandered towards Brits, might be the green vegetation but I saw slot of trails/4 by 4 routes in the magaliesburg ranges as I went passed, thought to myself, I need to made a day of it and just moer up anything I see.

Then cominh through hartees, exit before hennops and then laudium, got bored with the roads and took a turn off the hennops road through a gravel pass scurvwefontien.

Nice little pass through attridgeville, and out via the mines centurion west, had some pedestrians testing the water pass for me, lots of algea made me think a bit first.

Check out all the shacks going up, attridgeville it's growing! stopped here and there, everyone is friendly and happy.

The little area in the mine side, is very lekker, no fences just open very inviting to explore, I tried once on my T6 to get up one of these mountains but retreated eventually as it was getting hard work to get up those loose rocky hills.

To be honest it is rough. We had all the loose rocks on down hills. Not sure i want to do it the other way. Antoniesbergpass is the correct name. Mountainpasses south africa has a decent discription. We rode from patensie side. Hard work to the river. From there to steytlerville is gravelhighways.
@GeenSand , watter roete het julle geneem toe julle nader aan Steytlerville gekom het, die geel, groen of rooi een?

Dankie, beplan om dit ook een of ander tyd (binnekort) te doen, dis een roete wat ek ook nog heeltyd mis.
Oom Vis as ek jou eendag weer sien moet jy my tog asb wys hoe sit jy n roete so op n google map.

Sal jou met graagte help, dis eintlik heel maklik. Ek is eintlik bitter dom as dit by die nuwe tegnologie kom, maar ek het hier op die forum net al die advies en raad op die verskeie threads oor die onderwerp opgelees en die maklikse een gekies en dit werk vir my. (y)
