This one lane dirt road was major transporation route up until 1.5 years ago when it was replaced by a new highway. Biking down we dropped roughly 3200 metres with a 400 metre drop at times on your left. When it was used as a transport road 300 to 400 people died on it each year making it the most dangerous stretch of highway in the world.
Lindo continues to look great and he also managed to score us a free place to stay in South Africa from our mountain guide.
The weather change was dramatic with freezing tempurates at the top to hot humid temps at the bottom.
