We attempted the hardest MTB race in North America (Marji Gesick 100 2024)
We are about to take on our biggest challenge yet. The Marji Gesick, A 100 Mile Mountain bike race in the upper peninsula of Michigan on the shores of lake superior. Former mountain bike national champ Jeremiah Bishop called it the hardest single day race in North America and JB knows a thing or two about hard races. So do we, come to that – we’ve spent the past 10 years chasing hard mountain bike races, in a variety of disciplines, around the world. It’s kind of the whole point of this channel. So, now it’s time to put that premise to the test. With 12,000 feet of climbing and infamously tight, twisty, technical singletrack, this one is in a league of its own. Do we have what it takes to race da Marji?
