[*BCM*] David Lee Roth Bikes New York

[ted at igc.org]

Good luck guys;

I was also asked to be "interviewed"
for this show but also read piles of horrible reviews like you did 
and felt it might likely lead to a
convuluted, trivialized and negative portrayal of Critical Mass.
I disliked Van Halen as a teenager--maybe I'm letting that get to me.
But hey--what the hell. It is a rather unique/bizzare
opportunity. I hope it goes well for you!

Hi everyone,

so... its true. the former Van Halen rocker rides a bike in New York City.

What's more crazy is that he has invited two of the directors of Still We
Ride on to his new morning show to talk about the crackdown on Critical
Mass and biking issues in the city.  that is also true! i swear.

According to one of his producers who contacted us recently, 'Dave' doesnt
know much about Critical Mass, but wants to 'learn more' and 'educate his
audience'.

Now, I have never heard the show, which apparently has replaced Howard
Stern in the mornings in 5 cities across the US, but I have read that it
is not that great of a show. So who knows about 'his audience'?  Roth has
little to know radio personality experience and is supposedly difficult to
work with. Do a quick google search and pick from a handful of negative
reviews that pop up.

But that doesnt really matter.  What has materialized very quickly is an
opportunity for bicycling issues in New York City to have a national
'mainstream' audience.  Its pretty weird... and amazing.  We are
nervous... and chuckling.

So... tune in and tell your friends!!  from what we understand, we will be
guests on the show at about 8:15 AM on THIS THURSDAY, January 27, 2006.

hot for teacher,

Andrew L.
SWR co-director/producer
