Kenya’s quartet of Quinn Miller, Shaun Miller, Karan Sehmi and Arjun Mohindra believe their impressive displays at the 2025 Roof of Africa Hard Enduro in Maseru, Lesotho, augur well with their ambitions of becoming among the best on the continent.
The Roof of Africa once again lived up to its reputation as one of the world’s toughest Hard Enduro events, testing riders with steep ascents, rocky passes and the punishing Baboons Pass. For Team Kenya, it was a demanding yet inspiring experience.
Kenya’s standout rider Quinn (bike 323) finished 10th out of 200 riders in the Bronze Overall category with a time of 10:28:23. He described the event as both tough and rewarding.
“The Lesotho terrain is some of the most beautiful yet toughest I’ve ever ridden. Finishing in the top 10th is a great result for the country,” he said.
The race, he said, strengthened his resolve to push for even better results in future international events. For Shaun, who placed 27th overall in Bronze in 11:15:06, after a strong 15th-place finish in the time trial, it was a dream come true.
“To come away with a credible finish in such a strong field is a dream come true,” he said. “Finishing alone is a mark of distinction, and representing Kenya on this stage shows our resilience.”
Riding bike 227, Sehmi placed 29th in Bronze. His steady progression — 74th on Day One, 23rd on Day Two and 31st on Day Three—reflected his adaptability. “This race teaches you things few others can. My goal now is to return stronger and break into the top 20,” he said.
In the Iron class, Mohindra finished 53rd out of 78, describing the event as a major step in his development. “Every kilometre was a new challenge. I’ve grown massively and aim to move up the categories,” he said. Motorcycle Sport Federation of Kenya (MSFK) president Renzo Bernardi praised the team, noting their growing presence on the global stage.
