join me, together we can overtake the control of the city...










last week we had a huge social event here, the biggest critical mass of europe (at least the organizers say :) ) it was my first time this year, usually everybody cancels in the last minutes... anyway, it is really fun to conquer back the streets from the 'car that eats our town'. we had a 12 km run around the downtown, including the erzsébet bridge (the biggest, all 6 lanes blocked) and the alagút (the tunnel next to lánchíd, on the video), with the traditional 'bike lift' at the end. if true, 30000 biker took part in this demonstration.

on the pictures from top to bottom, the tunel aka. alagút with a little traffic jam of bikes :) and the police cars closing the convoy and making some noise with all the sirens, it was really fun... the chain bridge on two pictures, the run on the andrássy út on one, and our magnificent bike-composition and the bike lift on the last two... oh, and the yards on the video...
