Chris Boardman was my first teammate and my first roommate. I saw him finish his career with an hour record and thought, 'Yeh, what a way to go out!' Jens Voigt boardmancareerchris Change image and share on social
I am a family man, and I have to find my priorities. During the season, it is to race. During the off-season, it is to spend time with my family. Jens Voigt familyfindman Change image and share on social

I'm happy that the sacrificing, the hard training, the travel, the time being away from the family, is going to stop. So I'm happy; I'm glad about that. But I'm also terrified. Frightened.

It is the passion inside me that means I keep going. I love what I do, and I think I am lucky to do it. When I am riding a quiet country road, I hear the birds singing and think, 'I am in my office now.' Jens Voigt birdcountryhear share on social
What would we be without the fans? They're more important than me, because they make our sport great; they make things happen. We put on the show, but if people don't react to it, we are nothing. So, the fans, basically we should roll out the red carpet for them. Jens Voigt basicallycarpetfan share on social
I don't want to have that one year too much, where people actually, behind my back, start smiling at me and pointing fingers at me and go, 'Ah, look, that's Jensie. No, he's not good anymore.' Jens Voigt anymorebackfinger Change image and share on social
