Ride Description: Starting from Nikita we head out on gravel road until we reach the Broederstroom Harties tar road (R512). We cross the R512 twice and then ride  through the stream and up to the gorge and  onwards to quarry. Crossing the R512 again, we ride along the railway line - always a favourite for the hard tails. Then we ride  along a bit of tar, through the gap between the mountains and turn left down to the Crocodile river. We wind our way up the Crocodile river pass, down the concrete strips, along the single track past Dockers and back through the mountains to complete the figure eight. Finally we ride the long hawl back uphill to Nikita.  
 
Directions: Head out on Malibongwe/Hans Strydom past the Lanseria Airport intersection, pass the Home of the Chicken Pie (Maggie's Farm) and approximately 10km further on on the right hand side is the Nikita Pub and Grill. There is a large parking area.
