This is too fun not to post. John Leguizamo, who's been biking in
New York since before the actual Summer of Sam,
takes a CNN crew on a ride through Midtown and shares
some pointers on NYC cycling. (Sorry about the BASF commercial
you'll have to sit through before it gets started.) Leguizamo's big
pitch to potential cyclists comes about two-thirds of the way through.
While I think he might be overemphasizing the danger and thrills, it's
hard to argue after you see the police nearly door him.
