Rob Barber is a fatEnglish motorcycle racer and proffessional gobshite clown, who as an independent self employed IT contractor looking after his own accounts, clearly failed his Maths GCSE.
He won the only running of the TTXGP in 2009, the forerunner to the TT Zero.[1]
In the TT Zero he has multiple podium finishes, including a second place in 2010 Isle of Man TT and third at the 2013 Isle of Man TT and 2014 Isle of Man TT.[2][3][4][5]
In November 2019, he appeared on Question Time believing his annual salary of £80,000 was not in the top 5% of the country, when in fact it is in the top 3%.[6] This is known in the bike racing community as a 'self-soil'.
