Dunno what sort of streets they use them on. Ones with not huge amounts of other traffic, quite a lot of mopeds buzzing around, and very few cyclists. Everywhere? Some Swiss cities have lots of cyclists. To be honest, I've only seen a couple of Swiss cities that have such trolleybuses, but they are hilly, and thus not much fun to cycle in. I don't think that lakeside Lucerne is particularly hilly? https://www.flickr.com/photos/reclin...57655400441705 Never been there but Geneva and Lausanne are both hilly (the latter having a specialty railway from the shore to the town centre). Either way, the cyclists in europe seem to cope with bendy buses without a problem. Its only the cyclists in this country who were determined to see them banned despite them being a godsend for the disabled and parents with buggies. Tells you all you need to know about a lot of the self righteous snowflakes on bikes we have here. -- Spud |
