Cycling In Zürich
Cyclist in Zürich have not the best reputation. I'm no angle either (cycling maxim: take no prisoners). However, even if you really try hard, as a cyclist, in Zürich you just can't adhere to traffic regulations. Cycling tracks are patchy and meandering. At loads of crossings your are supposed to get off the bike, push it over the crossing, before your are allowed to saddle again (i.e. along the brand spanking new Glattalbahn). Why don't have cars to do this? Well, and the best of all are the contradicting paintings on the roads (you are not supposed to cross an uninterrupted centre strip / median):
