He delivered an all-star acting performance as a mad, performance-enhancing-drug doctor in his Dirt Diaries production,
Ze Lab. He pushed Fabien Barel to get creative in RockShox's French Lessons. He skillfully - and shamelessly - sent a cyclocross bike down A-Line and Dirt Merchant in the Whistler Bike Park. And despite a DNF in Rotorua, the opening round of the 2015 Enduro World Series, Yoann Barelli’s solid performances, and a couple of close 2nds, netted the Whistler-based Frenchman a top-10 overall in his discipline’s premier series.
The Dirt Diaries is lucky to have a natural-born comedian. French Lessons was richer for Yoann’s added perspective. The cyclocross faithful can surely rest easy knowing that their bikes are much tougher than they’d previously thought. And someday soon, Barelli’s undeniable skill and absolute love of the sport are going to see him all the way to the top of the EWS podium.
But none of that matters.
This is where Yoann Barelli is the absolute master - here, on the trails, shredding just for the sake of it. This is where his smile and laugh and his hoots and hollers make you remember why we ride mountain bikes in the first place.

I think the Trailforks idea is a good one, if it's optional
Or I could move to Antarctica. The riding looks amazing.
Yoann making a serious case. Fit, fun, fast, skillz.
I just moved to Simi Valley. I've been riding here for a few years but the riding is still top notch
for his standards it was a very conservative feature which does not mean that I don´t like it. Excellent riding and everything looks like it is the easiest thing in the world - looking forward to see what he will do at the EWS in 2016
The way the dirt actually arcs-up and chases him out of that corner?
Is it really dirt or actually the smoke monster from that shitty "Lost" series?
Not even the smoke monster can catch him, and the smoke monster killed John Locke, who was a total bad-ass....
Next question.
Also- I think there's a macho culture around wearing half-shells. :/
