Mitch Ropelato

I’m 20 years old, was born in Kirkland, Washington, and currently reside in West Weber (Ogden), Utah. I started cruising around the farm on my Schwinn Gremlin at age two and got the training wheels off at three. I started racing moto when I was 6, and progressed all the way through the 80cc class.

When I watched my first BMX race, I told my dad I wanted to do that. Santa brought me a Powerlite for Christmas, and I was hooked. I raced for a very long time, until a buddy of mine took me to the skate park on scooters. I decided to take my bike the next time, and became a park rat from ages 14-16. I even tried out for the Dew Tour a couple of times, but couldn't quite make it. I realized racing was my true passion.

When I saw Earthed 3 in a local bike shop, Peaty's part on his yellow Orange inspired me to get a mountain bike. I bought a hardtail and would go rally Deer Valley with Mike and Cody Kelley. Now I love mountain biking; it’s one of my greatest passions. Whether it’s pedaling up hill, going downhill, or dirt jumping, I’m a happy camper when I’m on my bike.
