Mountain Bike Talk
The summer of 2020 was the most successful since mountain bikes have existed as a leisure product and tourist offer. But the triumphal procession began long before that. With it, conflicts on trails increased and the environmental compatibility of this actually gentle sport was questioned. What does sustainable mountain bike tourism look like? How do hikers and mountain bikers find their space? SRF presenter Stefan Flury looks for solutions with experts from different camps.
Mobility Talk
The bicycle relieves cities and agglomerations. It takes up little space and causes neither noise nor CO2. But cycling in urban traffic is still dangerous and discourages many. What does it take to make cycling the mode of transport of choice for children and senior citizens, the inexperienced and commuters? How do infrastructures and rules need to be changed so that cycling can fulfil its potential and improve the quality of life in cities? Journalist Peter Röthlisberger welcomes experts and stakeholders to the Mobility Forum.
Road Cycling Rides
Do you like fast asphalt and crisp mountain passes? Zurich and its immediate surroundings offer everything and more. The racing bike guides not only know every metre of altitude, but also the roads with little traffic and even have surprises in store for locals.
Women only
