My name is Mitch Harnett and I am a 6th generation Californian. I was born and raised in the Bay Area riding local trails as a hobby up until I was about 18, when I decided to sign up for my first Sea Otter Classic in DH. I had an amazing experience, and have been hooked on racing since.
It wasn't until about 5 years ago when I signed up for my first enduro race as part of the California Enduro Series. To me, enduro riding is the ultimate test of a rider's skills, balancing stamina with control. I have been fortunate to compete in 20+ races over the past few years and am looking to compete in at least 10 enduro/DH races in the 2023 season.
I have been on ENVE products for over 6 years and absolutely love their quality and performance. Their bars and stems are my favorite upgrade and have led me to many successful races. I have a plan to take my off season training to the next level and be at peak fitness as we kick off the 2023 race season
