Taking on the Alone challenge will be his greatest journey until his next step-fatherhood.

Just before leaving to compete on Alone, Biko learned his fiancé is expecting twins-their first children. These are all skills he puts to good use on the property he owns with his fiancé, Erin, in the woods of Western Oregon. He spars with sword, axe and shield with like-minded friends, and loves building, welding, and forging with his own hands. When he was older, Biko trained with his Dad’s search and rescue team and he even participated in avalanche training.īiko loves the Norse gods and following in the old heathen ways. His mom rambled the canyon trails with Biko, his dogs and his friends. He taught Biko and his older brother everything about wilderness survival training.

“In a survival situation,” was Biko’s dad’s constant mantra. Biko’s father, a former Los Angeles sheriff’s sergeant and Marine veteran, shared a passion for wilderness outings and hunting and fishing, that he learned from his own father as a child in Fiji. Wilderness and survival skills were prized in his family.

Family vacations involved camping, backpacking, snowboarding, snorkeling, spear fishing or hunting. He grew up in the mountains of Topanga Canyon, California, where his parents shared with him their love of the wilderness. With the heart of a mountain Viking and the soul of a skald, Biko is most at home in the wild. Profession: Construction Laborer/ Lead Singer
