For the past 15 years\, Tara has worked full time coaching athletes and riders from all walks of life\, both in the gym and on the trails. Tara started Home Grown MTB in 2016. She has become a resource for locals and tourists alike\, looking to experience the big mountain riding and exhilarating backcountry trails of the Sonoran Desert.

Art is a talented rider who prefers long\, backcountry epics and hot laps at the bike park. Art got into the sport after meeting his wife\, Tara\, and together they’ve spent the past two decades making dreams come true on the bike. Favorite places to ride are Retallack – BC\, Whistler\, Angel Fire Bike Park\, and Mt Lemmon. His first coaching student was his wife\, Tara\, who he helped to develop into the rider she is today.

He is currently working with the Coronado National Forest Santa Catalina Ranger District on it’s Master Trails Plan to develop trails on Mt Lemmon. \n \n  \nMatt Hrabko \nMatt relocated to Tucson from northern California several years ago and dove head first into the Tucson MTB scene. He is Lead Guide and Equipment Manager for HG\, a Director on the board for TORCA\, and talented mechanic with decades of experience. Matt makes his living riding and working on bikes\, and has a “calm\, cool\, and collected” style that makes him a pleasure to be around. As a PMBIA certified Coach\, Matt has worked with hundreds of riders to help them improve their skills and ride with more confidence. Whether he’s riding the chunk on the local trails or traveling to bike parks for downhill action\, Matt is a talented athlete who is always happy to share the stoke with those around him! \n \n  \nKimber Burger \nAs a Lead Guide and Head Coach for HG MTB\, Kimber has coached and lead hundreds of riders on expert terrain.

Her ability to exemplify sound technique is a testament to her skills. In the summer\, Kimber can be found at Angel Fire bike park and other downhill parks. She is a PMBIA Level 1 coach and also works for Ladies AllRide with Lindsey Richter\, helping riders expand their riding to big mountain\, lift-accessed trails. In addition to being an exceptional mountain biker\, Kimber is a pleasure to be around and learn from. \n \n**PLEASE NOTE:  HG believes a well-rounded athlete benefits from the perspective of both male and female coaching and ridership; as such\, this clinic is co-ed**

This ride is approximately 8 miles\, and takes 1-3 hours\, depending on your experience and pace. **Various routes can be taken back to your car\, we recommend using TrailForks to see your options! \nTHIS IS A NON-GUIDED\, SELF-SUPPORTED RIDE.

As a PMBIA Certified Coach\, Tara has an exceptional knack for pushing riders to help them break free of their self-imposed limitations. Using a logical approach versus a fear based approach\, Tara helps her students develop the skills required to make solid decisions on the trail. As one of the very first of only a couple female riders on her home mountain\, Mt Lemmon\, she often chased some of Tucson’s fastest riders down technical\, fast trails. Tara started a Tucson based shuttle\, rental\, and guiding company called Home Grown MTB in 2016. She has become a resource for locals and tourists alike\, looking to experience the big mountain riding and exhilarating backcountry trails of the Sonoran Desert. She is also a founding member and past President of TORCA (Tucson Off-Road Cyclists & Activists)\, with thousands of hours of volunteer work slinging dirt and rock to make the trails better for everyone. Tara has coached MTB professionally for the past 5 years\, traveling the country working for some of the biggest names in the industry. \n \nStefanie McDaniel \nGrowing up riding dirt bikes on technical desert single track\, Stefanie is no stranger to two wheels. After picking up mountain biking in 2015 and entering her first race in the fall of 2017\, she’s quickly made a name for herself in Professional Enduro Racing. Stefanie is the current 3-time Arizona state Enduro champion and 2019 Nevada state champ\, and 3rd overall Pro Woman in the 2019 Big Mountain Enduro Series. Riding for the US Factory Pivot Cycles Enduro Team\, Stefanie is looking forward to continuing to rise up the ranks in the coming years. She owes much of her success on the bike to continued quality professional instruction. Her passion for learning and practice has grown into teaching others how to progress safely and become more confident and skilled riders. As a PMBIA Certified Instructor\, Stefanie is excited to pass her stoke for bikes onto her future students \n \n  \nSPECIAL NOTE ABOUT COVID19: \nKeep in mind that things change rapidly and we are not sure what the next phase for Covid-19 restrictions in New Mexico will bring.  New Mexico is still under a stay at home order\, masks are required outside the home except when exercising and no large gatherings.  I suggest two websites to stay current. www.angelfireresort.com and the state website https://cv.nmhealth.org/ with the covid updates – the FAQ’s are good.
