Idiotarod: Shopping Cart Race across Manhattan Bridge

Shopping Cart Race!

By Ida C. Benedetto

A mock version of the Alaskan dog sled races, The Idiotarod sees teams of five and their shopping carts racing through city streets every winter. On January 28th, New York City saw it's third annual Idiotarod consisting of some 100 costumed teams. The starting line was rerouted to Fort Green Park after police harassed organizers the night before at the original start location near the Williamsburg bridge. Uninhibited by the change of plans, teams careened over the Manhattan Bridge ending at the East River Park.
