Trademore Sherco Racing Delivers Outstanding Performances at the 2025 Roof of Africa
The Roof of Africa — known worldwide as The Mother of Hard Enduro — once again lived up to its reputation in 2025. With unforgiving mountain passes, brutal rock gardens, and long, punishing climbs, this year’s event tested every rider’s physical endurance, mental resilience, and technical skill. The Trademore Sherco Racing Team rose to the challenge with grit and determination, producing remarkable results across both the Gold and Silver Classes.
In the elite Gold Class, Dylan delivered a strong, composed performance throughout the multi-day event. Facing a field packed with international stars and seasoned Roof veterans, Dylan showcased impressive consistency and stamina, ultimately securing 14th place overall. His ability to push through some of the most demanding sections of the course while maintaining pace underscores his continued growth as a top Hard Enduro competitor.
Joining him in Gold for the very first time was Damon, who achieved a significant milestone in his racing career. Taking on the Roof’s Gold Class is a challenge many riders prepare for over several years, yet Damon approached it with confidence, maturity, and undeniable talent. Finishing 19th in his debut Gold Roof is an exceptional achievement that highlights both his potential and his determination. Completing the Gold category alone is a triumph — finishing in the top twenty is extraordinary.
Over in the Silver Class, Branden delivered one of his strongest Roof performances to date. His speed and consistency were evident from the start, and he shone particularly brightly on Day 3, where he claimed an impressive 1st place for the day. After three intense days of racing, Branden secured 2nd place overall in the Silver Class, firmly establishing himself as one of the top Silver riders in the country. His hard work, perseverance, and technical precision were clear on every stage of the event.
These results reflect not only individual talent but also the shared commitment, teamwork, and preparation behind the Trademore Sherco Racing Team. From training sessions to bike setup, logistics, and support crews — every part of the team played a vital role in achieving these standout performances.
The 2025 Roof of Africa showcased the strength, depth, and rising talent within Trademore Sherco Racing. Dylan, Damon, and Branden have each demonstrated their capability to compete against the best and continue pushing their limits in one of the toughest events on the global racing calendar.
A heartfelt congratulations to all three riders for their exceptional achievements. The team is immensely proud, and we look forward to carrying this momentum into the next season and beyond.
