Highway 61
Revisited
In a week or so are we gonna get a post from someone claiming to be your bike and stating that the whole story is invalid because the guy on the bike was you, not Mr Zimbel, and that you were rambling around looking for a wife swap.

Wow, I came back with the intention of writing something wierder than my first post, but now it seems this thread is the major leagues of wierdness. I feel humbled, and I don't have a bike (so maybe that makes me unhuman? I don't know anymore).

When the Serbs were playing soccer football with the Soviets back in the 1960's, they thought they were challenging the Mexicans, because they were convinced that this CCCP sign on the others' shirts meant Coo Cooroocoo Coo Paloma.As my 11 year old says: "coo coo, coo coo, coo coo".

As long as we're talking sports, that normal-looking, biped, cycle-toting Canadian must be sad now... the Russians beat them in the world hockey championship

I thought the thread said "wife swapping", and I thought, wow, you guys find so many uses for the humble rangefinder!![]()
Yep, I got a nice CV 35/2.5 Color Skopar for the wife, not a bad deal if you ask me!

Ned, thanks for reposting this story. I missed it the first time around. I didn't know George Zimbel, but I recognize a few of his images from an exhibit at the Leica Gallery or maybe the ICP here in NYC.
Cheers from a former Montrealer.

The cinematographer of this film is Christopher Doyle, I think he is a famous Carl Zeiss user.
