For green athletes

As you train and prepare for the World Championships, consider greening your on- and off-road habits.  Help us leave a smaller footprint through partaking in the following initiatives now, in Budapest and beyond!

Before the event

• Use the on-line registration system (coming soon!)
• Minimize printing event materials.  When you really have to, print on both sides of the paper
• Consider a greener mode of travel to Budapest (car-pool, bus, train)
  Thanks to the support of MÁV-START, the Hungarian railway company, you can take your bike to Budapest and back free of charge when travelling by train. To obtain your free bike ticket, please email us at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) by August 1, 2010.
