convinced? Well, here are some fast facts about the event:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In 2023, participants can choose between two distances: 100 miles (169 km) or 50 miles (80.5 km). To ensure a fantastic experience for everyone, rider numbers will be limited to 500 participants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>All bicycles are welcome &#8211; gravel \/ mountain \/ e bikes and even a single speed if you are up to the challenge!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The race will start and finish at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stanfordhills.co.za\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stanford Hills Estate<\/a>, a picturesque location that adds to the charm of the event.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The route will lead you out of Stanford towards Bredasdorp, continuing on towards Elim. From Elim, you&#8217;ll venture to Wolvengat, a uniquely named town that was briefly called Viljoenshof before reverting to its original name, Wolvengat. You&#8217;ll have the pleasure of telling your friends that you&#8217;ve cycled through a town called Wolvengat. After Wolvengat, you&#8217;ll enjoy pure gravel riding until you reach Baardskeerdersbos, a quaint village slowly but surely attracting Capetonians in their Audi Q7s. This is your opportunity to experience it in its unspoiled state before the first Bootleggers caf\u00e9 opens its doors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thestanford100miler.co.za\/?utm_source=bikehub&amp;utm_medium=article\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1368\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stanford100_2022_Pre-Race48-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-65371\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stanford100_2022_Pre-Race48-1.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stanford100_2022_Pre-Race48-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stanford100_2022_Pre-Race48-1-1400x935.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stanford100_2022_Pre-Race48-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Stanford100_2022_Pre-Race48-1-1536x1026.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Want to find out more?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay updated on race details by visiting our website and following us on social media platforms.
