Jens Voigt Highlights New Trek Bicycle Store Launch on Queen West in Toronto + Exclusive Jensie INTERVIEW
by pedalmag.com
March 17, 2019 (Toronto, ON) – Legendary fan favourite, Jens Voigt, was on hand for the newly opened Trek Bicycle Store on Queen West in Toronto – his only Canadian stop during a multi-week North American tour.
Voigt held court with 100+ fans for a Q&A session full of laughter as people peppered him with questions trying to meet his “ask me something no-one else has” challenge. Questions ranged from what sort of underwear he likes (boxers), to what has made him blush (see the video).
Fans lined up to get an autograph and a selfie with their popular hero. Store staff had the pleasure of sharing a glass with Voigt for an enjoyable dinner at Terroni afterwards with more stories courtesy of “Jensie, a master story-teller”.
In Pedal’s wide-ranging interview with journalist Peter Kraiker before the event officially started, Voigt talked about everything from his family, to his love of zoos, to how his life has evolved since retiring from the pro peloton.
