Jens Voigt - "I just did not dope"


Squier

Recommended Posts

A good read. Jens detailing his whole career wrt not doping.

Firstly, I believe him (yes, I'm a fan) but I do find it strange that he was never even approached to dope. He was racing throughout the "dark era".

 

Secondly, is it wrong that I can't help but wonder how great he would've been if his path somewhere crossed with EPO?

The only drug Jens needs is Ritalin to slow him down!

 

And that still does not slow him down... Have you ever tried to follow his Tweets??eek.gif

Yeah, he's all over the place! Poor wife! Has six seven kids in the house to deal with…

 

There was a great special features interview in Overcoming featuring him. He tells how his parents were happy when he got a bike because it took him off their hands for a while!

Respect to him for coming out and saying it. Wonder how many of the others can say the same?

It would be a big disappointment to me if Jens Voigt were/is/was/could be etc a doper. Armstrong, Wiggins, Cav et al; I'm not too fussed. But did he really not know a la Hincapie, Kimmage etc etc back then?? I'm not even going to think about it.

Weather Whether true or not, this is a bit of a shining beacon at the moment.

It's interesting to see his attitude to the Julich revelations.

 

True. The cyclists responses are quite telling of their attitude towards doping and the past.

 

I'm convinced Wiggins, Contador and Sanchez and rest will continue as before.

 

Funny how Wiggins' "Farther Christmas doesn't exist" comment was taken as a condemnation of the LA sage. Where in actual fact I interpreted it quite different.

Gotta love this guy!

 

Jens Voigt will never have a heart attack. Jens Voigt's heart isn't stupid enough to attack him

I love this part. Nothing ambiguous about this!

 

"And to avoid the impression that I don’t want talk about the past, or want hide my past, here I am saying very loudly: Keep my samples, test them, and re-test them, in 10 years or in 100 years from now. Go back in time and open my sample from five years ago or 10 years ago. Feel free to do so! There will never be any surprises because I have nothing to hide."
