Leisure time: Hobby racing cyclists Liefers at Tour de France

What does the actor Jan Josef Liefers do when he is not filming? He likes to ride a bike. On Thursday he planned the route between Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux and Nimes.

An unexpected start: The actor and amateur racing cyclist Jan Josef Liefers (56) claimed to have ridden the twelfth stage of the Tour de France between Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux and Nimes on Thursday.

The «Tatort» star showed a photo of himself on Instagram on Friday, on which he was driving along an asphalt route on a racing bike with a concentrated expression on his face, wearing a cycling jersey, sporty sunglasses and a bicycle helmet, among other things. Next to it the information: “90.1 km 8 July 2021 825 m”.

The 108th Tour de France is currently taking place in France. It is considered the most important cycling race in the world. The 56-year-old, who drove the 159.4-kilometer route outside of the competition, wrote: “The last 40 km on the already cordoned off route of the 12th stage of the tour to Nimes, 4 hours before the professionals got there.”

The presence of the actor, who often shares pictures of himself and his bike tours on Instagram, caused both enthusiasm and confusion: “Cheers from the people on the roadside and irritated looks from the police: Why is the top group so early and so old ?! »Said Liefers.

The Instagram post was tagged with over 5500 hearts by Friday morning. Liefers has appeared for years as the curious forensic doctor Professor Karl-Friedrich Boerne in the popular Münster “crime scene”.
