2025 – the 41st Annual Michael R. Burlingham Memorial

Six Days of Michigan

July 27 – August 2, 2025

• Days 1-3 from Gwinn, MI (Marquette County Fairgrounds) 

• Days 4-6 from Mancelona, MI (TBD)


Let’s do this thing!

Michigan is home to the largest network of permanently marked, regularly maintained off-road riding trails in the world! With over 4000 miles of trails and over 40,000 miles of wooded two-tracks, forest roads and designated public roads – the Six Days of Michigan is the best opportunity to experience off-road riding at it’s finest! It’s nearly a week of prime single track, scenic dual sport routes and unparalleled fellowship with some of the coolest people you’ll ever meet! We like to say it’s the most fun you can have on a motorcycle. Registrations are limited, so don’t put it off another season! Come out and ride the best – the Six Days of Michigan!
