Gusztáv is easily one of the most important cartoon figures of my childhood, often not even understanding the mature message I loved the humor of it. Enjoying it might require a certain taste, but anyone interested in what Hungarian day-to-day life was like has to check Gusztáv. The graphic simplicity and music sets the mood for Gusztáv's trivial problems, which he tries to solve in a very absurd and convoluted way, a typical Hungarian manner. The graphic gags in this episode are incredibly funny as Gusztáv tries everything to win the bicycle challenge. Also notable, that Gusztáv is one of the earliest works of Pannónia Filmstúdió, the first and most successful animation studios in Hungary responsible for other classics like A Mézga Család (1969-). This is animation history right here.
