Tuesday night pretzel ride

An experience truly unique to Philadelphia is the city's Tuesday night pretzel rides.  A mass of people from all over the city gather each week at the famous "Rocky Steps" at the Philadelphia Museum of Art just before midnight (that's me above pre-ride) and then en masse tear through the streets on bicycle to reach pretzel glory.  The group dodges in and out of the streets of downtown Philly until reaching Center City Pretzel Co about three miles later.  

Although slightly nauseating, this video I found on YouTube is a cool first person account of the frantic race from start to warm salty pretzel finish.

And here they are... six fresh, hot, delicious pretzels (and for only two bucks).  Not pictured are sides of the greatest honey mustard I've ever had and some pretty darn good caramel for dipping.
