INTRODUCTION In the past worthwhile “signature events” brought fame and fortune to countries, provinces and cities all over the world. Modern times with its competition on all fronts and increasing entertainment options make it very difficult to find a place in the sun for any new activity, and it is not easy to create such events without simply copying another event. Our aim was to find an event that would stand out and live up to the challenge of becoming a Signature event for Mpumalanga. This presentation tells you more. 2. THE SABIE 109TT This will be an event based on international proven results that will, combined with local vision and drive, create a Signature event for Mpumalanga. Chances are that it will become one of the best and most exciting South African Sporting events, ever! This event will be based on a world-renowned motorcycle race, held annually for more than a century on the Isle of Man. 3.
