Nice story, but at one point Haskin writes, He eventually would sell him to a Jewish bicycle salesman from New York named Sam Rubin, who when told he had bought a gelding, said, “What color is that?”)


What the hell does him being Jewish have anything to do with it? Nowhere else in the story does he identify anyone's religion or ethnicity. Why point out he's Jewish while making fun of him?
