Walking to work with a 74" shelf

We've been pruning through our stuff and putting items for sale on craigslist. One of the items was a 74" IKEA Lack shelf.

The buyer called me last night and was wondering if he can somehow pick it in the Midtown west area during lunch today. The shelf is pretty light and I'm only 15 minutes away, so why not.

Whew. So today, I carried a 74" shelf down the streets of Manhattan. Miraculously, I managed to wipe out NO ONE. I even managed to not ding anything... well, until I got to my desk and wacked into the file cabinet.

I got some weird looks and an arm workout. What a way to start the day.
