Team Kenya flagged off for 2026 Africa Motocross Championship

The Motorcycle Sports Federation of Kenya (MSFK) has officially flagged off Team Kenya ahead of the 2026 FIM Africa Motocross of African Nations (MXoAN) championship. The team, consisting of 24 riders and seven officials, will travel to Windhoek, Namibia, to compete at Gallina Motocross Park from August 28 to 30, 2026.

The riders will compete across eight different age and engine classes, ranging from the MX 50 category to senior MX 1 and Veterans classes. The technical delegation is led by Team Manager Eric Ngure, Deputy Team Manager Shanna Kandie, Coach Walter Kuria, and Team Doctor Dr. Njooro Karanja.

MSFK President Renzo Bernardi stated that the riders earned their positions through competition and have the full support of the federation and the Kenyan government. Performance at this continental championship is significant as it will influence the selection of riders to represent Africa at the Motocross of Nations in France and the WMX Cup in Australia.
