ZIMBABWE motocross star, Tanya Muzinda, is riding on the crest of a wave in Florida, United States, after she captured two podium finishes, over the weekend.
Her latest success came in the eighth round of the Bartow Championship Series.
Muzinda relocated to the United States, in 2019, in her bid to race consistently with world-acclaimed riders.
And, two weeks after another impressive showing in the 125cc class, the 16-year-old dirt bike rider once again gave a good account of herself. She bagged maximum points.
“A fast-paced race on Saturday night,” she said. “(I am) super excited to have collected (the) maximum points (and) bringing home two important wins.

Mar 15, 2021 at 4:11pm ET ++ Not just beating the boys.
Tanya Muzinda is used to being first. She’s the oldest daughter of the Muzinda family and the first to go to school. After hopping aboard a motocross bike at the age of five, it only took Tanya one year to become Zimbabwe’s first female motocross champion. In 2017, she also became the first female rider to win a round at the HL Racing British Master Kids Championships and took third overall.
Muzinda’s achievements led to an appointment as the honorary ambassador of the European Union to Zimbabwe for Youth, Gender, Sports and Development. She was also named Junior Sportswoman of the year in 2018 by the Africa Union Sports Council Region Five Annual Sports Awards. After all those achievements, Tanya and her family have bigger goals in mind.
