The Copenhagenize Report
Budapest's force is strong and determined advocacy and the results are plain to be seen. Social acceptance of the bicycle is impressive and the city quickly approaches the magical 5% modal share mark - in the course of just a few short years. Some proper infrastructure is in place – bike lanes between the sidewalk and parked cars (amazing how many cities get it wrong), and the local sub-cultures are supportive of mainstreaming cycling. Something other cities can learn from. Cycling promotion is world-class, too.

Copenhagenize Fixes
There is nowhere else on the planet that can muster up 50,000-80,000 citizens for a peaceful critical mass rally, but now the job is getting them to ride every day. Intensify the political lobbying and positive marketing. Budapest is a role model for all of Central and Eastern Europe, if not the rest of the world. More infrastructure, more politicians on board and Budapest will be a legend.
