I have loved the UCB forever and also love how many of cast-mates from SNL and UCB regularly talk about bicycling and taking the subway in NYC. If you are listening PLEASE email me at trorb@earthlink.net. I would love to follow one of you guys around for an hour on bike or in the subways and make a Streetfilm. I promise it will be fun.
