Swiss support biking.

Switzerland had a vote on biking rights last weekend, now if I could just get all those walkers off my tracks;-))

'Almost three-quarters of Swiss voters have approved a proposal to enshrine cycling, and cycling infrastructure, in the country’s constitution.'

Great to see the support for cycling there - the Swiss are so sensible

A step in the right direction at last perhaps wrong word step!!

This is the next big battle ground here, the Swiss love walking and with E-bikes access a lot more shared tracks. I am extra cautious and polite here as a lot of people don't hear you coming. It doesn't take much for all of us to get a bad reputation if there are a few incidents. So say g'day to walkers as both enjoy the paths.

Yes same here, I'm a keen walker too fortunately we don't have this problem over here (Yet!). Some hikers are a bit awkward the same as some bikers are, and I guess both fractions have the small element of haters!

I sure would love to live in Switzerland. Cycling as part of the constitution is a dream in this country with the Orange Baboon president destroying our democracy
