The Swartberg 100 Gran Fondo becomes the first SA race to join The UCI 2023 Gravel World Series

[vulgar]

Its a great event. Location , Route and Vibe before and after is pretty unique. Done it on my Mtb Scalpel  with 700 x 43 tyres and gravel bike. 

If you want to experience a different scenic route and location this should be on your bucket list for various reasons other than the UCI accreditation.

There is always a shorter route if you are unfit e-doped or still full from xmas....
