Idiotarod, the annual running of the shopping carts went down yesterday. Although there was a strong police presence, including a helicopter, the race went on with nary an arrest or ticket. Amidst the flying eggs, flour, fish oil and other unknown substances, Mike Green and Chris Ryan were able to shoot and edit some great video (from a tandem no less). Final results are forthcoming from the Carts of Brooklyn Racing Association (C.O.B.R.A.).
Update: Gothamist is providing comprehensive coverage of the whole event.
