JOE BARR
PRIMARY FUNCTION WITHIN THE TEAM
I build the bikes. I race the bikes and I be ‘me’.
STAND OUT MOMENT SO FAR
The race battle with Svata Bozak in 2018 Race Around Ireland was pretty special. It is my perfect race.
MOST CHALLENGING MOMENT SO FAR
Getting to that finish line in Race Across America 2019. That race put me in the pain bath for days on end.
WHY I DO IT
Because it’s who I am.
TJB HAS TAUGHT ME
There’s always room to be better both on 2-wheels and 2-feet.
FAVOURITE JOEism
Smile and wave Joe. Smile and wave.
IN 3 WORDS – YOUR TJB EXPERIENCE
I’m taking more than 3 words because I’m Joe – ‘it’s like being a 9 year old every day’
DID YOU KNOW
Joe loves to sketch with pencils.
