Any other places in the jhb area offering night rides?I might be wrong but I think night rides are on but the over the moon night races will take a 2 month break...

CAAD4 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Rode there tonight. It was rather fresh and the city lights were crystal clear. Who needs a race in order to ride at night? Give it a go with a few mates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enduro_Jakes Posted May 12, 2016 Share Bugger. Would've liked to give the night rides a go. Any other places in the jhb area offering night rides?Get in touch with Robodog here on the hub.

Eugene Brown Posted May 12, 2016 Share Are the Wednesday night rides still happening at Modders? Safe?Over the Moon night race series is on hold till spring, but every Wednesday the reserve stays open until 21:00 or 22:00, I'm not exactly sure. If you hit the trails at 18:00, it's already dark, and still enough time for a very good workout I've never even seen a "stray" person walking around, so I would rate it as one of the safer places to ride, day or night!Rode last night and there must've been 30-40 people, judging by the number of cars. Night sky was crystal clear and the trails were awesome after some very light afternoon sprinkles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickandtyred Posted May 12, 2016 Share Lekker. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSG Posted May 12, 2016 Share I generally ride there on a Wednesday night and mostly alone! Very safe although I wouldn't do the red route at night, not because there is a chance you will get jacked, but because it tends to be more technical and even more so at night, maybe thats just me!

Eugene Brown Posted May 14, 2016 Share I noticed a poster at the entrance pay point that the deserve is no longer open on Mondays. Just for info..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Hubs Posted June 28, 2016 Share We rode Modders the weekend. Still a great place to train!With the new "technical" urban fun section next to the river, there is a bit of added zip to the ride. The complete red/black section now takes us around 2h44 to complete at 48km. Not a bad Saturday winters ride out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickjay007 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Rode last Friday afternoon and noticed quite a bit of building in the reserve. Anybody know what's happening?  Also part of the trail on the Yellow/Red has been damaged due to a new gravel road running right through it.

Looks like they trying to make the park more accessible for vehicles. Hope they not planning to build! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonky Posted June 28, 2016 Share Looks like the Chinese are moving in! As i understand it, Modders has about 5 years left under the Chinese deal.   Can anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
