Yanto Barker (born 6 January 1980) is a Welsh former professional racing cyclist. Barker was the highest placed Briton in the 2005 Tour of Britain, coming ninth in the general classification.[2]
Career
Born in Carmarthen[3][4] and despite starting racing late at the age of 15, joining the Mid-Devon Cycling Club, Barker was successful in the junior ranks (aged 16–18). Having won the Junior British National Road Race Championships, he was selected to ride the Junior Road Race World Championships where he finished 11th.[5]
When Barker joined the senior ranks at the age of 19, he was selected to represent Britain as part of the National U23 team, and was paid. He moved to Manchester to be closer to the track and the medical & coaching team. He competed in the Under-23 road races at the UCI Road World Championships in 1999, 2001 and 2002, taking his best finish in 2002 when he crossed the line in 12th place.[6]
By 2000, there was less money available for cyclists such as Barker[citation needed] and, following the advice of a coach, he moved to France at the age of 20 to gain experience of continental racing.[4] He represented Wales at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne
He initially retired from professional cycling in 2007, returning to live in Devon but returned to cycling in 2010 to ride for the Pendragon Sports / Le Col / Colnago Team.[7] Barker signed for You have called {{Contentious topics}}
