Legend: Jens Voigt

Overview

Cycling powerhouse Jens Voigt was the boss of the breakaway when he was a professional. Bernie Eisel travels to Berlin to meet Jens, tour his beloved city, and visit the places that influenced his life and seventeen year cycling career. Born in East Germany, Jens gives us an insight into what it was like to grow up under a communist regime, how discipline and determination was instilled in him from a young age, and how this helped him as a bike racer. Bernie chats to close friend, and old team mate Bobby Julich, who helps to paint a picture of this extraordinarily tough and charismatic cycling Legend.
