Rabat, Jan. 15 -- British cyclist Robert Adams, 15, recently won the Morocco Desert Challenge in the E-Bike 25 class.

Adams told CNN he relied on his father's tips and GPS tracking to find his way to victory. Alone for much of the race, the teenager finished 30 minutes ahead of his closest competitor.

"The navigation is a skill in itself. I think that's what makes this event so unique," Adams told CNN. "You could be the fastest rider there but if your navigation isn't up to scratch, you're not going to do well."

"The further you go from the big cities the friendlier and more interesting the people seemed to become," added Adams.
