My friend Jack and I ended up doing a little scavenger hunt thrown by another friend, Justin. It involved riding all over lower Manhattan, Williamsburg, and Greenpoint to find random small things — the number of trash cans in Chelsea Market, the sign on a building at Park Row and Mott, etc.
…and Jack and I won! Very exciting.
The trophy:

Jack and I in front of the Manhattan Bridge (sort of.)

The ride:

Great way to spend a beautiful May Saturday.
Passing this one on to someone else… up for auction, my 1992 Eddy Merckx MX Leader. Full set of detailed pictures, available here. Really interesting, really beautiful bike — elliptically shaped Columbus MXL tubing (derived from Columbus MAX specifically for Merckx) with oversized lugs specifically for this tubeset. Eddy Merckx’s top of the line frame from the steel era, and one of the most sought-after Merckxes ever made. It’s a little bit too big for me, and hopefully it’ll find a good home.
