Barel to La Pierre I reckon...
It'll be good to see him on a different bike, and cue the barrage of abuse...but a better one, it's well known that Kona's aren't the greatest race bikes.

Barel's bike is nothing like a standard Kona when you get it up close, radically different

New Impreza does suck loads, however big names in the business is a good thing.  Still think it's unfair that we have to ride down the course and he's allowed to drive though....... Grin
