    no bike storage, no secure parking for cars either, no showers, no disabled loo for changing, nowhere to put skanky biking clothes, no encouragement to bike at all to be honest.

    we have a family car that the missus uses to get to work. we live in the arse-end of nowhere at the end of a fjord in Norway so she cant get to work by public transport. it costs about 100.00 quid a month for fuel. and cars in Norway cost x2 or x3 the price in the UK and can have up to approx 100% tax on them when bought new. our car is a 2003 1.4 golf estate and cost us about 12,000 pound one year ago. EEK. I’m a bit luckily in that there is a little island hopper ferry that i can catch from our village to nearby my job. But when the missus starts to sprog out (next year is the plan) we may need to get another car.

    you live in manchester ffs. every second person is a gang member/grannie killer. you could probably get a hit on him done for 100 quid.

    other than that report him to the local chamber of commerce and the manchester evening news

    5mm makes **** all difference unless you have seriously dodgy knees. all the change in length does is adjust the gearing slightly. but you are riding a geared bike so it dont matter

    and avoid the ex-pat community as much as possible. force yourself to integrate into the swiss culture and life and you’ll love it. the mtbiking in Zurich is excellent and your only 1 hour away from the big hills

    i lived in Zurich for 5 years – 2002-2007 – before moving to Norway.

    I loved it. the best place i have ever lived. i met, and still have, some swiss friends. you have to try to learn the language (german).

    i would love to go back there but my missus is norwegian and wont leave viking land
