The weather has gone nuts and we’ve had a 30C temperature increase in the last 3 weeks and it now feels like summer. I’ve been getting cabin fever stuck in Zurich and the small hills around it so with 17c, blue skies and sunshine yesterday it was time for an adventure. What a ride – jersey and shorts, an 11km Hors category climb passing ski slopes and snow shoe hikers, an insanely fast fun descent back down, frozen lakes and xc ski areas, smelly cow farms and finally Saturday shoppers posing in their Gucci sunglasses beside Lake Zurich. The photos say it all, more here
