As a junior he dabbled in time trialing on the road before turning his attention to mountain biking. He placed 12th at the 2005 Zimbabwean National XC MTB Championships[1] held in Harare. Carne was a member of the Zimbabwe team that competed at the 2007 UCI African[2] Championships that were contested in Windhoek, Namibia where he finished 5th having fractured his forearm in a heavy crash earlier in the race.
