Take the TransMilenio G43 or G42 (Sundays only) (see Google Transport, Moovit or simply ask around for departure points) (02/20222024: COP 2,6503000) to the final stop "San Mateo". Please note: A few bus routes in Bogotá change or don't work on Sundays and public holidays.
At whatever station you get on, you can ask any person to let you in with their TransMilenio card in exchange for the ticket price.
In San Mateo walk towards the exit and turn right on the pedestrian bridge. Leaving the station you will see the highway going South ("Autopista Sur") right in front of you. Here wave down and get on any bus going towards Sibaté and ask the bus driver to be let out at "Cruze Sibaté" (02/20222024: COP 2,5003000) where you will find two quite very little frequented Mobil gas stations (04°32′40.96″N 74°14′41.06″W). This is where you can start hitchhiking and asking people for a ride. Update 2024: I did the trip in march 2024 - i suggest not to take the Silbate Bus but better the Charquito Bus. Jump of when it leaves Ruta 40. This is where all the cars pass slow and can take you to the next Peaje.
