Tucson is surrounded by the Santa Catalina mountains, with Mount Lemmon staring down at you from 2,791m up. Lemmon makes up most of Tuscon's MTB and Cycling trail network which is maintained by TORCA.
With mild Winter temperatures and only 2 or 3 days of rain a month on average, Tucson is a perfect destination for some Fall/Winter sun. The rocky cactus lined MTB trails are some of the World's best and provide a unique riding experience. Be sure to put this place on your bucket list.

Who's ridden in Tucson before? Let us know!
I have, it's amazing
I have. Try to do the full Lemon Drop at least once a month. It's a real sufferfest!
Heck yes! Never ridden Lemon but hope to someday. The trails on other parts of the AZT are darn burley.
I ride Tucson Mountain Park. Robles, Star Pass & Sweetwater Preserve. Fantasy, Pistol Hill to Three Bridges. I’m a snow bird.
every day.
Thanks for highlighting Tucson. I don't make to Mount Lemmon often so I tend to do laps at Fantasy Island. Still good fun
Tucson has some damn good mountain biking! Mt Lemmon has blessed us with limitless gnar
I am Japanese
I love the video you post
Channel closed! I support you from now on!
Love AZ, Bravo! 👍🏼 I come every winter!
Nice video, but it's pretty disingenuous to call it a 'Complete Guide'. Not even close.
Head to pinkbike.com to read the full complete guide that accompanies the video :)
Ahh yes. I see now. Nice write up. Should have mentioned that in the video!
So has anyone taken a Hardtail on lemmondrop?
Had a fantastic time on Bug Springs, on an excellent enduro bike rented through Tara's company, Homegrown MTB. It was a *great* trail, descending through three mountain environments, gorgeous, with some challenging but fun tech (I walked ~3 super steep sections) interspersed with flowy sections. (But be prepared for the HABs at the beginning, and half way through.) Will be visiting again!
Huh... another Torca/Tara/Homegrown video. what a surprise.
Tucson’s sick! I’m enjoying their trails right now.
I’d like to know more about that gorgeous bike you were riding. Stunning.
Same here
Sean Garrison I filmed this on my Trail429...full build details on Instagram @bricycles 🤘
I want that Naruto combo at 2:47
You over-rotated, there Cru.
I Love Riding La Milagrosa (Translation Miraculous) & My President Tara Alcantra
🔥
Thank john mcstain
as a MT. Lion swoops and and takes you as it's prey, lmfao
In terms of being technical....i dont think the trail shown was. Hellrazor in Iddyild CA is super tech....theres a reason why most of the companies test on it.
La Milagrosa, by Jeff Lenosky. Maybe you've heard of him, I don't know, but either way there's a reason top MTB racers train in the area during the winter season and test prototype parts there. And no, it isn't because of "Fantasy Island," although that's fun to screw around on and bed in brakes (most product days are hosted there by the vendors). ruclips.net/video/-iroej7J6-k/видео.html
That is cartel territory. Riders be careful.
Cartel territory? Pretty sure Tucson is still land of the free, home of the brave - America.
you're kidding right?
Me? Kinda kidding.. I don't anticipate Tucson riders being endangered by the cartel. Mostly being silly though
no cartel on any trails in tucson
rattle snakes and old ladies with walking sticks that's about all u really need to watch out for on Mt Lemon
Does anyone know if there are any dirt jumps in the area?
I know it's been awhile since you asked this but there is a great area called 100 acre woods
