The Idiotarod: A Lot of Cops, A Lot of Pics

We missed the Idiotarod, which is a sort of winter version of the Mermaid Parade with shopping carts, which took place yesterday and ran from Clay and Franklin in Greenpoint to 45th Road in Long Island City. It apparently attracted a large police presence, including helicopters, in addition to a large number of participants and onlookers. Gothamist did some coverage as the “race” was going on that you can check out here and bluejake has a photo feature up. And as of this morning, there are 1,146 flickr photos up online from the 07 Idiotarod. More to come, no doubt.

Not every photo who shot Idiotarod photos (TresspassersWill’s, eva101, JefferyEl, LarimdaME) put them in sets, but very cool flickr sets were posted by:
