What a weekend. What an experience.
While CAR16 – Phoenix Rising may not have reached the finish line this year, the Rhino Charge has never been only about the finish. It's about the journey, the teamwork, the challenge, and most importantly, the incredible conservation work that this event supports.
The team tackled tough terrain, unpredictable conditions, and everything that makes Rhino Charge one of Africa's most demanding off-road events. Although the result wasn't what we had hoped for, the determination, teamwork, and spirit shown throughout the event made us proud to be part of the journey.
Most importantly, Rhino Charge 2026 once again raised significant funds for the Rhino Ark Charitable Trust, helping protect Kenya's vital water towers, forests, wildlife habitats, and ecosystems for future generations.
A huge thank you to the entire CAR16 – Phoenix Rising team, the organisers, volunteers, supporters, and everyone who contributed to making this event such a success.
A special thank you goes to Husqvarna for their support, partnership, and commitment to initiatives that make a real difference in our communities and environment.
Sometimes the greatest achievement isn't crossing the finish line. It's being part of something bigger than ourselves.
Until next year.
