What’s faster transportation in NYC: An MTA bus, or a Big Wheel? Mark Malkoff races across 42nd Street

This technically isn't a Big Wheel, or they've dramatically changed the popular children's toy since I had a Big Wheel. But still. Mark Malkoff has issued some fun and silly challenges in the past. Lived in an IKEA. Lived on an airplane. Lived in his bathroom without any access to technology. Got across Manhattan by having people carry him.

Now he has challenged New York City's MTA bus system by racing a bus across Midtown Manhattan on a "Big Wheel."

Place your bets!

  1. He rides a Big Wheel in the opening animation, but in the race, he appears to be riding a Razor Rip-Rider 360 Drifting Ride-On. I’d like to see this race again with an actual Big Wheel or possibly a Huffy Green Machine.
