PRESS RELEASE
YANTO BARKER IN FOR WALES STENA LINE TEAM.
The Wales Stena team for the FBD Insurance RÁS which gets underway from the GPO next Sunday week has been considerably strengthened with the news that the country’s most promising young rider, Yanto Barber, has obtained a late release from his team DFL and will now take his place alongside former winner Julian Winn as co-leader.

Barker has figured prominently in all the top British races so far this year so his form suggests that a position in the favourites bracket for overall honours will not be mis-placed. Barker takes the place of Lewys Hobbs.
