nice - i've always had a good time in zurich. It looks like the trails are right in the city. How's the riding & where are the trails?

yeah there is something about coming to the bottom of a hill just completely covered in mud with a smile in ur face.
@dump: the trail is at the uetliberg, which is the nearest trail to my home. once at the bottom, xc riders will ride up in 25min or so, all mountain dudes in 30min and me pushing my v10 in 40min. have never timed how long the trail is, doesn t have any worth to mention jumps...it has around one zillion corner though, very tight ones, off camber ones...lots of fun.
i love how the bike looks in mud, but allready cleaned it and it s sparkly...as for my clothes...hmm, gonna grill some meat instead.
cheers
