 Yellow Zebra users :) by MedioLatino
Especially in summer, bikes can prove very useful. The transportation is very good, but with that you miss a lot of details. And since Budapest is a big city, walking is a good choice but not for all the destinations...:)
There are bikeroads in Budapest, but not everywhere...but you have to be really carful even on this sort of roads, because car drivers often "forget to think" about bikers...
Lots of nightspots are easily accesble with bikes as well, so this might also be a good choice for party people :)
And if you are here and need a bike-partner, just drop me a note! :)
Rent a bike here if you don't have yours with you.

 Main tribunes during the 2004
F1 race by MedioLatino
The racetrack was built in 1986, and on the 10th of August that year the 1st ever Formula One race in a (now post-) communist country was held, which means that next year we are going to host the 20th F1 race!
The racetrack is in Mogyoród, a little city near Budapest, it will take you only about half an hour to get there if you are lucky. But after the race it usually takes more time to get back to the center...
There is usually a free bus service from Budapest for all having their tickets to the race, and the F1 has every year a contracted taxi company with a flat price from all points of Budapest to the racetrack's entarnce.
Sunglasses, water and that's about it! :) Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Mogyoród, off the M3 motorwayPhone: +36 28 444 444Directions: The track can be reached via the M3 motorway with car, free bus or taxi (see above). There are lots of signs showing it, so you won't miss it.Website: http://www.hungaroring.hu/hungaroring_en

 Skaters on the move in
the City Park skating
rink by MedioLatino
The first real building was built in 1875 according to the plans of Odon Lechner, and since 1887 the iceskating part has artificial cooling so it can work even during not so cold days as well. The building which can be seen now was built in 1893 (the old one was just not big enough...)
The rink is open from 9 am to 1 pm and then from 4 pm until 8 pm every day (exceptions: on saturdays they close at 6 pm but sometimes they are open from 7 pm to 10 pm, on Sundays the morning shift is from 10 am to 4 pm).
Skates are there for rent as well (500 HUF/hour), so you don't even have to take these with you! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: 14th district, Olof Palme setany 5Phone: +36 1 364 0013Directions: The skating rink is just behind the Monument on Hosok tere (Heroes square).

You can have a mornign jog in these parks and sidewalks:
Margaret Island
Citypark
Duna Korzo (Pest side)
Margaret Island is the best among of these because there is a running-rubber rug applicated on the Island, especially for runners and joggers.
In the winter cold it is important to keep your limbs warm: wear gloves and hat. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Margaret IslandDirections: tram #4, #6, at Margit sziget station
