and shop owner. He passed away November 7, 2024
Lets remember another one of us here in
zurich. lots of people forgot, not enough props he got. ex
veloblitz, one of the first ultrakurier (i guess he even founded the
company, not sure...). but time passes by fast. people forget. we
don't. but kids, remember. we die. lets take care for each other now

Deeply affected I saw the flowers at the bike shop only today. My
deepest sympathy to Benno's family and friends. He will be greatly
missed in the neighborhood - christine.seith

We say goodbye to Benno Ernst Meier
11/12/1973 - 11/07/2024
Benno's life was his loved ones, his families, his job, his
customers, his bike rides alone and with friends. On Saturday,
October 19th, he closed the door of his MEIER CYCLES in Zurich and
on October 20th he set off on his last ride with friends. Everyone
who knew him is sad about Benno's departure from the earthly world.
He was a bright spirit, father, life partner, son, brother,
godfather, brother-in-law, cousin, valued bike mechanic and friend.
Our special thanks go to the intensive care unit at KSWinterthur,
the doctors and the pastoral care.
