Discussion [OC] I scored every street in Munich by how dangerous it is for cyclists. Does this match your experience?

122 Upvotes

I cycle and got curious how cities actually looks from a bike saddle, so I built this: every street scored by cycling risk. Red = dangerous, green = fine. The score comes from things like bike infrastructure (or the lack of it), speed limits, one-way streets and how bad the intersections are.

Some things surprised me — a few streets everyone treats as normal routes come out deep red, and some boring side streets are basically the safest way across the city.

But I don't ride in Munich every day, and no dataset beats local knowledge. So I'm curious: which street is colored wrong? Which ones do you avoid on instinct that the map thinks are fine? Which "dangerous" ones are actually okay in practice?

Happy to explain the score if you're curious about the methodology. It powers our navigation app Defensive Pedal that finds the safest route for cycling, not the shortest

Discussion What’s the going rate for a babysitter in Munich

9 Upvotes

I know it’s be different for a trained professional vs a student etc. a baby vs multiple kids etc but just trying to figure out what I should expect to pay for my 10 month old daughter. I’ve looked on other sites but it doesn’t seem realistic given how expensive Munich is.

Sorry if this isn’t a “Munich” post but it’s Munich specific given the cost of living here. Parents what do you pay? Babysitters what do you ask!

Hallo liebe MünchnerInnen, 🎾

Als Tennisenthusiast (M27) fällt es mir schwer passende Partner zum regelmäßigen spielen (ca 1 mal die woche) zu finden... In meinem Freudeskreis habe ich leider keine großen Tennisfans.

Wie findet ihr / man Partner zum regelmässigen spielen? Vielleicht findet sich ja hier jemand, der Interesse hätte? :) Habe bis jezt immer im Olympiapark gespielt, bin aber eigentlich flexibel.

Freu mich auf interessierte! **🎾** Falls wir doch mehr sind, könnte man ggf auch eine Gruppe machen... 🚀

Ich brauche zehn O Ring Dichtungen mit 7mm Innendurchmesser. Leider gibts in den Baumärkten nur Dichtungen für Badinstallationen, da ist das Maß nicht dabei. Beim Kustermann war ich auch schon. Im Internet gibts halt immer nur gottlose Großpackungen. Also, wo gibt's in München noch nen Laden, wo man so was in kleine Stückzahlen bekommt?

Visitor/Tourist Question Therme Erding during stopover?

1 Upvotes

I have a layover staying at the Hilton Munich Airport. I arrive on a Sunday around 2pm and leave first thing the following morning.

I’ve always wanted to go to a spa there and am wondering whether it is worth trying to go to Therme Erding Sunday evening? After customs etc, I would probably be able to leave the hotel around 3ish?

Can I uber there and back and would it be worth it? I guess I would get a few hours?

Thanks in advance!!

Help Piercingstudio in Maxvorstadt

0 Upvotes

Ich bin neu her gezogen und suche ein Piercingstudio in der Gegend um Maxvorstadt. Ich finde auf Google viele tattoostudios, und die meisten Rezensionen beziehen sich auf das tattoowieren, statt auf das piercen.

Ich will aber unbedingt zu einem vertrauenswürdigen piercer, weil ich da einmal schon schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht habe.

Kann jemand ein gutes Piercingstudio empfehlen? Geht um ein entzündetes Piercing, das nicht abheilen will..

Visitor/Tourist Question Mountain town between Vienna and Munich?

0 Upvotes

I'm backpacking through Europe this summer and will be taking the train from Vienna to Munich. My plan is to leave Vienna early in the morning, spend most of the day somewhere in the mountains, and then continue on to Munich later that evening.

I'm looking for a town that's:

  • On (or not too far from) the Vienna–Munich rail route (I'm okay with taking a short regional train if it's worth it)
  • Surrounded by beautiful mountains
  • Has a lake that's good for swimming
  • Not overly touristy
  • Has a relaxed vibe where I could rent a bike, ride around, grab lunch, and just enjoy the scenery

I know I'm kind of asking for the best of both worlds, a place that's easy to reach but also feels like a hidden gem, but I figured if anyone knows, it's this community.

Does a town like this exist? I'd love to hear any recommendations, especially if you've stopped somewhere similar on this route. Thanks!

Mögliche Verlustorte:

Bei meiner späteren Ankunft in Bever war er bereits nicht mehr da.

Dieser Hund ist ein älterer, stark abgenutzter weiß-brauner Bernhardiner-Plüschhund mit dunkelbraunen Ohren, braunen Augen, einer großen schwarzen Nase und kurzem Fell.

Er hat KEIN Halsband und KEIN Holzfässchen mehr.

Er begleitet mich seit fast meinem ganzen Leben und ist für mich unersetzlich. Falls ihn jemand gesehen, gefunden oder bei einer

Fundstelle abgegeben hat, schreiben Sie mir bitte eine private Nachricht.

Bitte teilen Sie diesen Beitrag. Vielen Dank ❤️‍🩹

On 17 July 2026, I lost my childhood plush dog (Alberto SA Mobaco Bernhardiner), while travelling from Munich to St. Moritz.

Possible locations include Munich public transport, Munich ZOB,

replacement bus 10196 to Lindau, the trains to St. Margrethen and

Chur, Chur city centre, the Rhätische Bahn train from Chur to

St. Moritz, and St. Moritz railway station.

He was already missing when I later arrived in Bever.

He is an old and visibly worn brown-and-white Saint Bernard plush

dog with dark-brown ears, brown eyes, a large black nose and short fur.

He no longer has his original collar or wooden barrel.

He has been with me for almost my entire life and is irreplaceable.

If anyone has seen him, found him or handed him in somewhere

please contact me by private message. Thank you ❤️‍🩹

Hi there,

I am visiting the city for an academic conference. So far I am enjoying the city a lot!

I have already tried:

- sauna at therme erding, an aufguss was amazing and for me very relaxing as the park allows me to wear a swimsuit.

- Beer garden. Tried 3 or 4 beer with schnitzel, currywurst, and roast pork.

- Kebab

- Deutsch Museum

- going to visit Saltzburg

What else should I do to fully enjoy the city?

Help Where to buy beach towels in Munich?

0 Upvotes

I feel so stupid writing this post, but I feel like I’ve gone to so many stores (such as TK Maxx, decathlon, H&M, depot) and I can’t seem to find beach towels anywhere! Only bath towels… I know, they’re easy enough to order online but we’re in the process of moving places so I’d rather purchase in person. Does anyone have any suggestions of stores or specific locations? x

Visitor/Tourist Question BMW Museum Tour Language

3 Upvotes

Hi All,

I am looking to take a guided tour in German at the BMW Musuem in Munich. I took german in HS and am pretty good at it, now I would not call myself fluent. They make you confirm twice when booking almost with language such as:

"Do you speak the language in which the tour is performed? If you do not have the required language skills, you will unfortunately not be able to participate in the tour. In this case, a cancellation is not possible."

I have no problem not understanding portions of it and would never demand english clarification...but german is the only time that works for me.

For anyone thats been how do they assess this lol? I can certainly introduce myself and have a light conversation...what if someone deaf or mute wanted to go on the tour?
