    I have been riding since I was 4 or 5 but started racing when I was 12, this will be my 3rd year racing. Since starting racing, I have only raced the SoCal League XC races, but earlier this year I began to do different races. I placed on the podium in two out of the three SoCal League races that I competed in. I also placed on podium on the two Rim Nordic XC races that I raced in

    I began racing cyclocross in Ohio when I was 12 years old. I have always loved bicycles and my dad is an avid cyclist. I raced in Ohio until my junior year, where I quit racing bikes to become more involved in highschool team sports, but my love of cycling was always present. I moved to California my senior year of highschool and rediscovered my obsession with bikes and racing. Going from a flat place like Ohio to being able to ride world class mountain bike trails right outside of my door has ignited my racing fire like never before. I competed with the Newbury Park mountain bike team for my senior year, placing 1st in the JV1 category and then bumping up to the JV2 category where I had consistent top 10 results. I also raced enduro with team big bear and podiumed in the beginner class. After graduating I could not handle the lack of racing and training, which led me to sign up with Bobby Langin in the fall of 2023. He has taken my skills and training to the next level, and I am currently riding 6 days a week. I am always looking to improve on the bike and do not see myself slowing down any time soon.

    I have been riding mountain bikes on and off for over 30 years, but really started to become more consistent in 2007. In 2018 I became a NICA coach for a high school cross country racing team and continued to do so for the next 5 years. I raced two local enduros the next year, placing top 5 in both. I also did the same races in 2020, continuing to result in the top 5. After the pandemic I returned to the same enduro races in 2023, and placed 2nd overall in the Team Big Bear Kenda Cup series in the Master 60+ class. Due to injury I was only able to race two times in 2024, one 1st place at a Team Big Bear Kenda Cup enduro and a 2nd place at the California Enduro Series China Peak enduro. In the 2025 season I plan to race all of the Team Big Bear Kenda Cup Enduro series and majority of the California Enduro Series.

    My name is Mia Morris, I am a 17 year old senior in high school and I’ve grown up in the state of California, taking full advantage of the beaches, mountains, desert and snow my whole life. Mountain biking from a young age has helped me build self confidence and taught me that even as a woman, I have a place within a male dominated sport. I want to be an example for other girls like me who want to find success in the mountain biking community whether or not it is related to racing. Mountain biking isn’t just a competitive sport to me, it's a lifestyle that provides a community and home. Family and friends are a huge part of my life and I spend a lot of time with the people who are important to me both on and off the bike. As a senior in highschool I am still unsure what the future holds but I know mountain biking will continue to be a huge part of my life.

    I have been racing mountain bikes for less than a year now, but I originally started out as a bmx racer. I raced bmx for around 4 years. Around November of last year I became very interested in mountain biking and decided to race for the newbury park mountain bike team. During the cross country season I podiumed in all of my races. I was racing cross country up until now when I became interested in doing enduro racing as well. I hope to race many xc and enduro races during this season.
