Alpha Team enters the event as proven riders who have already shown their grit in the unforgiving Kaokoland and Damaraland. Their father‑and‑son dynamic gives them complementary strengths, competitive energy, and an unspoken trust that only years of shared adventure can forge.

Both Craig and Byron are die‑hard explorers who thrive when the terrain turns wild and the margin for error shrinks.

They arrive meticulously prepared, backed by attitude, discipline, and a resilience that doesn’t crack under pressure.

They are the dark horses of this year’s field — quiet, capable, and far more dangerous than most will expect.
