Hullo all,
I'm going to do a month of language training in Switzerland in either June or July and I'm trying to decide between Lausanne and Zuerich. This would be my first time in Switzerland and apart from the language course I'll be wanting to do as much outdoor sports as possible, especially MTB.
I understand both cities are located near mountains and I wanted to get the upsides and downsides from people actually living there. Also, is there a MTB community in either of them? (that would make it so much easier to get to know the trails).

Cheers
Amit

PS
though it's in the profile, here's a few words about myself: I'm 27yrs old, Israeli, a student (at Tel-Aviv university), I like outdoor sports & reading.
Feel free to ask me about anything else.
