Did you get shot at?
Somewhere around the bottom of the lake there used to be (in 1998) a shooting range where the shooting positions were one side of the road, and the targets on the other side. The first I knew about it was hearing the crackling/sizzling sound a bullet makes over head, very quickly followed by the bang from the gun. I damn near shat myself and probably did my best ever 30 second power numbers as I got the fuck out of there.
I mentioned it to my (Swiss) boss at work on Monday and apparently it's quite common. (There are a lot of shooting ranges in Switzerland as there's a shooting test every year as part of your military service).

Ah, I replied on Strava but yeah, didn't notice any shooting. We did have dinner the night before in an old armory now restaurant but no shooting IIRC. Do you know where it was? Looked like lots of open cow fields around the bottom of the lake and not much going on.
How long were you in Zurich for? If you ignore all the filthy rich supercar-driving fucks it's a really funky city with tonnes of bikes and I'd definitely go back again. Only had bikes for one day so did some walking on the other days but yeah, great public transport and lots of stuff going on.
