Location: Coetzenburg & Paradyskloof, Stellenbosch, South Africa
Joggers: Only me

This morning I headed out just before sunrise. I climbed to the ruin of the hut above Coetzenburg and then headed towards Paradyskloof on the contour path. I stayed on the contour single tracks all way to then edge of Paradyskloof. After this I dropped down to a lower contour and headed back. When I reached G-spot there were MTB riders everywhere and I decided to skip the downhill here. I headed down the jeep track to the Stellenbosch Experimental Farm and finished the run next to the Eersterivier.
