Budapest Critical Mass 2009

Critical Mass Budapest is a mass demonstration aimed at bringing the public’s attention to the crisis caused by motor vehicles, e.g. traffic jams and environmental pollution. It promotes the bicycle as a healthy, fast, cheap and environmentally friendly alternative mode of transport. The organisers of this event would like to encourage the local population to use their bicycles for transportation whenever possible, and not just for recreation or sports. (www.criticalmass.hu)

You can see the bridge from a similar angle being full of cars here.

Interesting. There was something similar here in Manila last Sunday (19th). It was called the Tour of the Fireflies (I didn’t see them though). Maybe they’re a member of this Critical Mass group…
