Sabie Breweries, one of our MacMac Ultra Sponsors, will be fueling Eloff and Frikkie on their 100miles of route checking and clearing. If you can guess how much beer they consume during the Recce, you can win a R200 Sabie Brewery voucher to spend at the brewery in Sabie or online! Top tip: Do NOT underestimate these guys wrt their beer drinking abilities 🍻
