Jens Returns
He's riding at the Tour of Missouri.
Saw this on VeloNews - a classic:
Voigt said his kids picked him up at the airport in Berlin five days after the Tour crash.
“When they picked me up, my boys said, ‘daddy, you’re such a hero.’ I asked why. ‘Because you’re like number two on YouTube downloads.’ I’m like, are you crazy? I would rather be healthy and be last in downloads,” he said. “The girls were a little more concerned.”

Can't wait to see him race on Sunday! Maybe I'll make a poster for him and Levi.

Jens is a great rider. He must be the hardest working man in road cycling. Hat's off to a successful return for him.
