Jens Voigt: Before the curtain drops

[@gcn]

Great video guys! we're really looking forward to watching Jens later today - best of luck to all involved.

[@WmCRobison]

it is to bad all professional athletes do not have as much class as this man Jens Voigt!

[@DavidCulshawmer-r]

what a guy and what a career :)

[@markhayward440]

what an inspiration, a nice guy, a tireless worker and a supreme bike rider, he will be sorely missed...bye Jens

[@jannikmeissner]

Jens always was a constant in my live. Since the earliest cycling seasons I can remember, he was part of the peloton. And now it seems odd to have a Tour de France coming soon, without him

[@barabooshark]

Bout cried a little seeing him in that chair reflecting. Jens, you've done more than you'll ever know.

[@97511423]

Damn... starting to miss Jensie more than ever !!

[@darthtoffee]

Jensie represented what is pure... gonna miss the man.

[@MrCalman65]

Met him at a charity ride in Hawks Nest Australia. A true legend and a funny guy. I asked him if he misses racing. "No" was the curt reply. Fuck I hate it when sports heroes have to retire!

[@leopardtrek1150]

Recently Cancellara said the same things...they`re fed up after 18-20 years as Pro ! ;)

[@HoshinoMirai]

We'll buy him out! He is giving us too much pain everyday!!

[@bperez2788]

jens voigt you were a beast great memories thank you

[@londonpickering8675]

Great ambassador for the sport!!!!!!!

[@itmuser2926]

Jens was THE type of rider you'd want on your team to support you 200%

[@fexy01]

Gonna miss that guy. Cycling will never be the same.

[@yoongkengkai3995]

Daaaaaaamn I miss Jens.

[@Torontoflatlander]

That last line. I nearly lost it.

[@allskoolguru]

Thanks Trek for bringing him to Malaysia! Just saw him at the Trek store launch

[@austriasdaughterssons3617]

Jens muss man einfach mögen!

[@jowblow4974]

Does anybody know the name of the song in this video at 3:58

[@Zino027]

I love him

[@ArtEmis55K]

A great guy who has given a lot to cycling and entertained us. I would respect him even more if he'd admit to having done the thing that we know he did like all he rest. He's still holding out though - sad to see at age 47

[@daveheisler4155]

Thanks for the fun,your the man.

[@renatopico7282]

Jen's is my idol

[@assmanxhire]

What a classy guy, makes me sad to see him lieave the peloton. You're THE MAN Jens.

[@redheads50]

Viel Glück Jensie!

[@gazietorix]

pour moi une légende dans le monde du cyclisme ! pour son humanisme son dévouement pour ces ou son équipe et surtout très proche des enfants et de ces fans ! .. merci Jens !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jacksquat2067]

Well-earned retirement, sir. May you live another 80 years. :)

[@searay3340]

This man will be missed in the peloton. But sure he will miss the peloton even more, hope he comes back in cycling as a teamleader or something.

[@1942rita]

Was missing Jessie so KZbin helped. I’ll send him a tweet today too.

[@Wordsmythe1]

Crush the hour record tomorrow! Go Jens!

[@jtk1ify]

inspirational guy

[@richhcassidy]

A true great.

[@julianhick8342]

whats the some at 3:58

[@ciach121]

Someone know's the name of the song - 3;58? Thanks to you and #shutuplegs and I know that cycling will always be with me. Thank You Jens!

[@jdelgado15]

Thank you for the memories, Mr. Shut Up Legs! Enjoy your well earned retirement!

[@RapidRire]

Anybody know the name of the song at the end ?

[@manoahgutknecht4277]

What is the name of the song at the end of the video?

[@Quickdraw811]

I'm in that video, I made it in to a jens voight video. boo ya

[@KurtVogel88]

der Vorhang fällt...

[@AlexontheHunt_adv]

What a guy

[@bikedawg]

Cycling is BORING without him!

[@beatroot09]

Gotta love that guy. I am worried about the hour record, though. why is he thinking of putting himself through that? Hour record riders are time trialists ... Jens is not.

[@Ineedasourcecode]

... And he crushed it!! :D

[@beatroot09]

I know...didn;t break a sweat...unbelievable...

[@lethargic_cow]

he did it ;)

[@chenliang5263]

Why did he stuff his nostrils with paper while warming up?

[@Sills71]

cotton has some sort of decongestant on it to open up the breathing.... doping... legal doping but still doping.

Shared this at the groupspage where cyclists meet: facebook.com/groups/wielrennenANEKDOTES/ WAF !

[@1afterthep]

too bad he never cared for his shitty pronunciation. I'm always embarrassed listening to sportsmen who can't or won't learn halfway proper English even though they know they will have to give interviews. Come on, you've got so much time while travelling. I'm glad to see the new young talents are different.

[@fabian2125]

I liked the times, when they were sportsman and not trademarks... i just cannot identify myself with people, who behave theirselves in order to benefit the most. But nevertheless, how bad is his pronounciation? Do you understand him?
