The old way : Cycling to the minute



According to Viamichelin.com, when you go from Sopron to Tornanádaska by bike, it only takes 33h47.

First, it takes you 07h31 to Györ, then 9 hours to go on from Györ to Budapest, another 5h45 to reach Gyöngyös, from which Miskolc is a mere 7h, and then you are only 4 hours and a half away from Tornanádaska (4h31, says viamichelin --a trifle, really).

Interestingly enough, there are shortcuts : from Györ to Gyöngyös via Visegrad (only 14h29, saving 16 minutes) and from Gyöngyös to Tornanádaska via Ózd (only 10h46, that is one hour thirty-two less than cyclig via Miskolc).

Then again, with those shortcuts, you miss Budapest and Miskolc, the two favourite cities of lynx's...

What a shame.

I don't think it would take a lot less by train so it is an option worth considering! (From Cracovia to Budapest it takes 10 and a half hours - it is 380 kms!)

Actually my father went from Budapest to Aggtelek by bike, but he was not used to it so he almost passed out by the end...

And one correction: my favourite cities would be Budapest and Sopron (and maybe Tata or Eger) but Miskolc - BY NO MEANS! :-)
