Advancing Youth Development

Beyond's commitment to youth is demonstrated through programs like Beyond Racing and Beyond Bikes, which uses a four-pillar approach to get students outdoors and moving on bicycles, connecting them with their community, and educating them on nutritional needs.

Beyond provides the foundation for Beyond Racing to to enable youth from across Tucson and southern Arizona to challenge themselves and build community through the sport of bicycle racing, ensuring that we develop not just strong cyclists, but strong, healthy, and engaged young people.

A New Chapter for Youth Cycling Excellence 

For over two decades, Tucson’s youth cycling scene has been shaped and inspired by a powerful vision: to use bikes as a vehicle for growth, confidence, discipline, and opportunity. That vision, championed by Ignacio Rivera de Rosales and Daniela Diamente, helped introduce countless young athletes to cycling for over more than 20 years. Rider’s abilities ranged from first-time riders to some who progressed to elite competitors who eventually represented the U.S. on national and international stages. Alumni also include hundreds of young people who developed into capable adults that still love to ride and give back to the community.

Starting back in the fall of 2025, this mission continues with the launch of Beyond Racing, a youth cycling program founded by Ignacio and Daniela, at the request of riders and families that wanted what they continue to offer. 

Built on the same core values of inclusion, excellence, and community, Beyond Racing is already home to many families and riders who were deeply shaped by their previous cycling experiences under Ignacio and Daniela’s leadership. Beyond Racing welcomes riders of all skill levels and backgrounds, continuing a proud tradition of making competitive cycling accessible, character-building, and fun. 

New name, same mission, stronger than ever.
