Around Cape Town there are just too many to mention - all within a days drive - like - 4 passes through the Boland and Agterberg - Cape Town to Cape
Point round both sides of the Peninsula - Cape Town to Hermanus via Pringle Bay and back via Bot River and Sir Lowries Pass etc etc etc.
For all of the above you really need to hire a Cobra or some cabriolet. Only downside of the open car is that you might end up with a baboon in the
cockpit looking for food if tourists block the road near a troop of baboons. (Don't ask how I know  - they get in much faster than you can get
out  )
All best done out of season around March to May when traffic is less of a problem and not as many tourists and not so windy.

1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

B9007 from Carrbridge to Logie. It's worth the 550 mile drive from my home in Reading just to get to it........
Always biting off more than I can chew.....

I did this route in a Caterham CSR200 back in 2010 and it was epic. Was a treat for me and the missus for our 10th anniversary. Did it over 3 days and
stayed at the The Albannach (michelin star restaurant with a hotel attached ) for 2 nights. We got
the Caterham from Highland Caterham Hire. Was the most amazing few days in stunning scenery
with stunning roads, the hotel was pretty amazing as well. Decided to do this rather than spend the same amount on a weekend city break abroad and it
was worth every penny. Ultimately it was this that gave me the need to build my own.
