Stage 2 gets underway with azure waters of False Bay to your left as you head out of the Kalk Bay, along Main Road in the direction of Fish Hoek and Simon’s Town. A deceptively undulating section of the Cape Town Cycle Tour route may prove more challenging than it does with 30 000 fellow riders to suck you along. Yet soon you’ll find yourself admiring the ocean views on ascent of Smitswinkel. A long, gradual, descent is the reward passing Cape Point National Park and through the sleepy village of Scarborough. In the centre of Scarborough Stage 2 reaches its conclusion.
