Cyclists Take Over Streets In Budapest Tomorrow
"Cyclists will take over major Budapest roads on Saturday afternoon in the annual Critical Mass bicycle parade. Car drivers are advised to avoid the downtown area, as the event attracts tens of thousands of participants.

The cyclists will set out from Roosevelt tér at 3 p.m., cross the Chain Bridge and proceed through the tunnel to Attila út, Krisztina körút and Hegyalja út, before crossing back into Pest via the Elizabeth Bridge.

They will then follow the embankment to Kossuth tér, before making their way along Szemere utca to Szent István körút and Teréz körút to Oktogon, thence along Andrássy út to Heroes Square.

Hundreds of cyclists took part in the Criti-cal Mass ride in Debrecen on Thursday."
