inCycle video: Jens Voigt rider profile
German always willing to sacrifice fo🥃r꧑ his team or snatch a win in a breakaway





168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jens Voigt (168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Trek Factory Racing) is set to retire at the end of the 2014 season and while the 42-year-old's palmarès includes over 30 professional wins with two individual stages of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France and two stints in the Tour's yellow jersey as highlights, the German has never been one for the limelight🔥.
Voigt's strength as a rouleur throughout his career has been his willingness to sacrifice for his team or snatch a win in breakaway. Two attributes that have defined Voigt's career has been his readiness to suffer and "almost die on the bike" to support his leader and his tenacity which 𒉰has drawn admiration from the peloton and fans alike.
As he explained to inCycle, he developed his body to withstand a higher pain threshold than his rivals. "I just had a willpower, a desire to perform and I just kept on yelling at myself, 'they are only humans like me, they cannot drop you. They are only humans like you, they cannot be bet♓ter than you.'"
W🍌ith his 'Shut up Legs' mantra, Voigt continues to race aggressively in his farewell seas🔴on. While he still knows "how to wins races," his body "cannot do it anymore" and he explains that its time to give back and share his racing knowledge with the next generation.
"I still now how it works, when to go, how to attack and what to do," Voigt explaine꧃d to inCycle."I can pass on my knowledge and experience to the young kids and say 'If you go now, this and this will happen and you will see you will be good in the end."
Cont෴ent with career, Voigt has no regrets but "you can always dre𝐆am of another stage win at the Tour or a Tour of Britian, but I am pretty happy with how it is now."
When looking back at his carer, Voigt hopes that people will see him for more than the "number of watts pushed, calories burned or UCI points collected or wins collected." And instead will say, '"Hey that's Jens, he's a really hard worker. If he wins, that's because he deserves 💜to win, if he doesn't win then he doesn't deserve to win becaus💙e he wasn't strong enough.'"
