New writer
Hello everyone!
I'm Alan Escreet and after joining in last month's night run and thoroughly enjoying it, I decided to take up the role of writing the English blog. I hope you enjoy it!
We had a big group this time with many new faces: 39 people and 2.5 bicycles in total. 2.5 you ask? Well, I guess if a bicycle only has one wheel, it only counts as half ;-)
We picked up two small groups along the way who wanted to know what the hell we were doing, one between Boráross tér and Mester utca and one between Margit sziget and Margit híd (budai hídfő). Hope to see you all next month!
Then, just to add a bit of extra spice to the whole run, we got stopped by the police shortly before Mechwart liget, who didn't know what we were doing and didn't know if it was allowed or not. Of course, this had many of the runners whispering if they may have taken part in the final 6É night run, but the police let us continue and with any luck will let us keep running!
I forgot the count of how many cars honked their support at us (or shouted various funny things at us), but I think it was a lot. We also had one of the BKV service vans flash his lights and we weren't sure if the police siren and lights counted as more than one car (personally, I think it does).
More news at the same time, same place, next month...

"Run of the Halves":
There were 28.5 honks.
(One driver tried to honk, but it turned out to be broken.)
Actually, it was the Border Guard (just merged with Police after Hungary joined the Schengen Zone) who stopped us. :-)
