Hey guys, just a heads up, got a tick from my ride there yesterday , so check yourself after your ride.

Learnt my lesson on the golf course a few years ago. Now apply tabard whenever I play golf or go riding.

Thanks for the warning..

i actually had to go to the doctor yesterday - no signs of tick bite fever but lots of swelling and secondary infection. I'm also gonna start slathering on the sun screen and tabard .

Tick bites can be nasty..hope you recover quickly..besides I believe modderfontein can become a challenge in the summer with the rain..

Awesome sighting last night at Modders of three very young Black Backed Jackal pups, still grey in colour they are so young.

 

Was lucky enough to spot a Jackal few weeks back on an early morning ride. 

 

Jackal gave me one good look as I came out of a section of singletrack and then darted off.

I ride at Modders a lot as it is down the road from my house. Love the place, the trails and signage have definitely improved a lot over the last year! Got to see some wildebeest and a couple of buck yesterday morning.

 

The river was overflowing yesterday from the rain and it was boggy in some parts, but overall was a great ride.

Any update on the conditions ad Modderfontein after all the rain? I know in the past it became very muddy and messy.

 

Also are they open Weekdays and if so what time do they open?

The trails are generally open 7 days a week, from 06h00 to 18h00.
