WELCOME TO THE MARJI GESICK: A ROCKY, ROOTY, OLD-SCHOOL Heavy METAL PUNCH IN THE FACE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=FLTchCiC0T0 Self Supported Ethos You are on your own. We are not here to help you. The course is marked but signs fall down, bears eat them, people mess with them, and the wind blows them away. GPS is required. Road rules apply at all times. If there is an emergency dial 911. GPS + Road Rules For the 1,000th time… GPS is required. If you choose not to use it, and you end up in the Huron Mountains, you can blame yourself. If you do not know how to use a gps it might be safer to stay home. Road Rules apply at all times. Obey them. Be courteous. Be smart. We do not put volunteers at road crossings. If you see someone directing traffic, we didn’t put em’ there. Here’s a video about following the rules… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiQmQhA-OrM RWGPS RWGPS Checkpoints Checkpoints are hidden across the route. Some checkpoints have tokens, while others are just there to mess with ya. You won’t know what it is until you check. They all look the same. If you get to a Checkpoint and it’s full of “something”, take one. It’s a token. If it’s empty, #blamedanny and keep rolling. Checkpoint locations and contents are kept secret. We do not share plans with anyone… If you get to the finish line without any of the required tokens we’ll DQ ya. To be clear… all checkpoint signage is found directly on-route. They’re not hidden in da hills. On the approach to a checkpoint you’ll encounter large signs 24” x 36” with the words “CHECKPOINT AHEAD” followed by a sign that says “CHECKPOINT” with a full bin of “something”.

You will find them at approximately mile-49 on the one-hundred mile course on Saturday from 9:00 am – until mid-afternoon. There will be aid tents with food and hydration. The resort restaurant will be open for support crews. It has a ton of parking. We’re sharing this so you can plan accordingly. Don’t thank us… we have nothing to do with it. Thank MM and 1UP. NTN SOUTH TRAILS PARKING LOT: We ask that you do not use the South Trails Lot. Marquette Mountain is hosting a neutral support point with 1UP. Lots of resources. LAKE ENCHANTMENT ROAD: Is off-limits to support crews and Marji Gesick traffic. Do not use it. Riders will be able to get support from the resources Marquette Mountain and 1UP provide. There is usually another location on the way to Negaunee called “The Wurst Aid Station”. Count on those points for support. Share this with your crews. Essentially, between Marquette and Negaunee, you need to be on your own. From Marquette Mountain (below). This neutral support point is run by 1UP and MMR. Do not contact us for details. We’re not here to help. Aid is available at MMR in the form of water and ice, restrooms, and a place to meet support: Wednesday, 10am – 5pm in the Mountain Shop, support can set up on our base.

We will not post them anywhere else. If everything goes to plan, they’ll be posted by Sunday, September 15. COURSE MARKING Course markers consist of four signs: Red ArrowsWrong Way Blame Danny Blame Todd The course is marked well, but that does not mean you should leave the gps at home. Like we have always said: Signs fall down, people pull them down, bears eat them, and the wind blows them away. GPS is required. Course markers should for the most part always be posted on your right side. Turns should be marked before and after the turn. Signage is printed on a reflective material making the arrows very easy to see at night. The course will be marked between Sunday, September 15 and Friday, September 20, 2024. If you happen to be pre riding and see something that doesn’t make sense, let me know. PRE RIDING ONE WAY TRAILS AND PRIVATE LAND Some trails within the Marji Gesick routes are “one way”, but on the day of the event we go against the normal flow of traffic. Please refrain from riding one-way trails in “the wrong direction” during your pre-ride. We checked with the trail orgs. NTN is the only trail org currently designating some trails as “one way.” Marquette Mountain is private property. We are permitted to send racers across their property on the days of the event. Outside of the event you are required to purchase a day or a season pass. Please respect that. Lowes Trail crosses private property, too. The landowner has been kind enough to grant us access to the snowmobile trail/powerline for the event. PACERS AND UNREGISTERED RIDERS Pacers and unregistered riders are not permitted. The trails are open to the public, but the event is not open to someone who wants to “ride along.” If caught using a pacer or riding with unregistered riders, it will result in a DQ.

Cable, age 9, carving out his legacy. (It’s a good day; it’s a bad day) Shakespeare insisted that a name held nothing significant; in fact, a name is but an arbitrary designator. A rose, “by any other name would smell as sweet.” If the rose weren’t called a rose, we would still swoon over the sweet smell. Poor Juliet, the owner of a smitten young heart, failed to see everything that exists in a name. In my case, at thirty years old, I still carry my maiden name. Instead, I like to say it’s the name I’ve made for myself; I don’t see that changing any time soon. I grew up in the trailer park across the street from the General Motors Factory in Janesville, Wisconsin, and attended Jackson Elementary school. It was there I celebrated Andrew Jackson as a glorious president; Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act of 1830. What’s in that name? A legacy of brutality*, I say. *Yes, this is a reference to the 1985 album by the Misfits. Hybrid moments is one of my favorite songs of all time. I believe that there is a legacy in the name; a name is what we make it. I was Alex for years, ambiguous, unsure of myself. It wasn’t until I began to own my history that I started going by my given name. Alexandera, with the extra “e.” It was the name I was given; it’s up to me to leave the legacy behind… –> Continue to Full Article Supporting Partners

Make sure to follow the campground rules. Be respectful of your fellow campers. If ya got questions about the campground, or the rules, contact the NTN. Parking is a self-supported activity. Please be advised: Parking can get a little crazy in the morning. We always suggest that if you can, you ride to the start, or get dropped off. Plan to get parked early. At Forestville: Get there early. Seriously. It. gets. Crazy. Follow directions and do what the parking crew tells ya. We have a lot of people we need to move through that area in the morning. Downtown Marquette: Utilize public parking resources. Be considerate of our businesses and residents. If you park illegally, that’s on you. Do some homework and identify public lots ahead of time. Keep in mind the lot next to our start is not available after it is full, or after 7:30, whichever is first. 906AT Basecamp: You are welcome to park at Basecamp and ride to the start.

Know what you’re gonna do. Get your Support Crew setup for success. Plan ahead. Execute. Tokens – One more thing… We hope this doesn’t happen but it seems to happen every year… A dude (or woman) gets to the finish line without all the tokens. If this happens, ya gotta make a decision right there: Are you going back for it, or not? If you say yes, you need to turn around and head back out. If you don’t, you are done. Don’t tell us that your cousin has it in his car, or something of that variety. If you don’t have it, you don’t have it. Don’t give your tokens to anyone. Doing so will get you disqualified.
