Driving Cape Town -> Jo'burg next week ... advice on route?

[d0dja]

I'm leaving Cape Town next week to relocate to Jo'burg for a new job. I'm driving up with a bootload of stuff to stay in a rented room until I decide where I want to live (somewhere a nice short commute from the DD Campus).

I've heard the N1 via Bloem is a nightmare of roadworks. How's the road via Kimberly. Anyone done the trip recently?
