Trey Addison Wier and Alexis "Lexi" Beerman are a Dating team on The Amazing Race 21.
Coming into the race with no prior foreign travel experience, Trey & Lexi struggled with the traveling aspect of the race, having to rely on allies Jaymes & James and Natalie & Nadiya for help. They earned some controversy for keeping the money that James and Abba misplaced, but the alliance, which dubbed themselves the Dream Team, went on to dominate the second half of the race, leading by almost half a day from their competitors, and orchestrated their rivals Abbie & Ryan's demise with a U-Turn plot. This alliance allowed Trey & Lexi to find their footing in the race, winning three legs on their way to the final three. They led for most of the final leg until Lexi struggled with the final Roadblock, allowing both of the other teams to pass them and resigning them to a 3rd place finish.
