Jens is one of my all time favorite cyclists. Super nice dude but an animal on the bike. I would like to ride with him before I die.

It's Voigt. No relation to Jon.

nope... photo is from velonews... my thighs are a little bigger than that :banana:

I did talk to Jens during the prologue of the 2007 Tour De France in London (planned a trip around the tour that year). He was great, very personable, signed stuff for everyone and took a ton of photos with us. Was an absolute blast to talk to, smile from ear to ear on Jens the whole time, you can tell he just loves life...

. . . this year and one of the alleged perks of the trip is team access after the race is over. I would very much like to shake Jens' hand--and Chris Horner. I hope both make the TdF selection this year.

love that quote. I really wish I would have picked up one of those limited release "Shut Up Legs" prints from a few years ago.
