OFFICIAL MODDERFONTEIN MTB TRAIL ANNOUNCEMENT


RickyTomCCMA

Recommended Posts

Rode Modder yesterday morning as part of a brick session for training, nice park, really open and hilly which makes it feel like you are in the country, the farm has a strange vibe to it especially with those storage units or bomb shelters, and with the burnt grass it felt like we were cycling through poland. Any idea what those big warehouse/bomb shelter things are for?

 

cant wait till the route is made a lot more technical, used to Rietvlei and need more of a challenge. (Japanese Gardens and some "danger" decents would be awesome!

 

Ricky will the park be open next Monday? its a public holiday? also how does one organise a season ticket? or multi entry pass?

The 'bomb shelters' where used to store Dynamite for the nearby factory.

I see, pretty cool old buildings.

There are lots of cool old buildings in the Modderfontein "precinct", including an abandoned old hospital which was recently used in a film set in North Africa..

I rode Modderfontein on Saturday, the red route. I got completely lost and landed up only doing 30km instead of 40km. I really think the marking can be improved. Nevertheless, a great ride.

Had an AWESOME ride at Modders on Saturday... After the storms in the morning.

 

The course is fantastic with new sections ever time I ride... Some sections are still so new you gotta concentrate to stay on track but all good :whistling:

 

At last the dust has been settled :clap:

+1 On opening afternoons during the week in Dec.... At least a couple of days a week?

 

Come on - otherwise I'll have to go play golf instead - and really my golf is so *** I may as well stay in the office!

Hey Drac... So I found out over the holiday's that if you get a "season" card... that you are able to ride almost anytime...

 

I am going to look further into this one... As this would then let me ride Friday afternoons thumbup1.gif
