Hi,
This is an old road/pass going from the one side of the Magalies to the other side, lots of DS riders do this on a Sunday before going for breakfast in Magaliesburg. Some dirt roads availible to ride towards Magaliesburg.
From the R104(Pretoria to Rustenburg) turn left at S25 45 34,6 E27 28 46,9 towards the Buffelspoort dam, then left again at S25 49 09,0 E27 26 14,0 onto the dirtroad going to the pass (keep right towards the mountain at split) and then hold on and enjoy! At the top you can stop to enjoy the view. On the way down you can turn left at S25 53 35,8 E27 26 52,8 another left at S25 53 24,2 E27 28 54,6, just follow the dirt road to
S25 53 51,3 E27 35 48,6 (the R560) then turning left to follow the road to Magaliesburg. If you go sraight down without turning off you will reach the R560 and turn left.
Just check your map before doing this, I'm not sure how to get to Magaliesburg from the R560, think it's just straight on.
This is a fairly known route amongst riders, I think? I've done it twice on a bike and it's a awsome ride, remember your camera.
