Today, one in five inhabitants of the city of Szeged chooses environmentally friendly cycling. More and more people are getting in the morning on this easy, inexpensive and fast means of transportation to get to their workplace, school, or university. The SASMob Szeged team invited them to a breakfast this morning next to Radnóti secondary school.

They were waiting for cyclists with a mug of tea and some cake from 7 a.m. on Stefánia, the city’s busiest bicycle route. The cycists started early in the morning, and there was no shortage of those interested, as according to statistics, almost 30.000 people in Szeged use bicycles on a daily basis, proving that there is life outside of driving a car.
