"What attracted me to join AG Insurance-Soudal was that I only ever heard good things about the team, and when they reached out to me, I was immediately interested in hearing what they had to say. I was quickly drawn to their vision and how they saw me fitting into the team. It was clear that they had a strong idea of how I would fit in both as a rider and as a person."
"Within the team, I feel like I am still learning, even though I have quite a bit of experience in the WorldTour peloton. This year, however, I realized that I'm not the youngest anymore. So, in that sense, I hope to pass on some knowledge to the younger riders while also remaining open to learning from everyone. In terms of racing, I'm quite a versatile rider, but I certainly excel in climbing."
"AG Insurance-Soudal has built a multi-level programme that includes under-19, under-23 and elite teams with a strong development component to its graduating tiers, where Žigart, now 27, aims to work closely with the up-and-coming riders on the team."
"I explained in a team press release that growing up, around my extracurricular activities in music; and playing piano and guitar, I was active in multiple sports; track and field, volleyball, and running. I said that I gained a love of cycling after riding my mother's stationary bike before later taking up road riding and joining a local team."
