My MSNBC Biking Story: Chris Hayes

2:35 PM EDT on June 14, 2012

Here's an intriguing promo from the cable news network that's ahead of the pack when it comes to livable streets. MSNBC host Chris Hayes is pitching his show with a foreshortened look at his Brooklyn-to-Rock Center bike commute. You'll have to forgive the sidewalk riding that bookends the trip.

Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Brooklyn Bridge bike/ped path, and what appears to be the Henry Street bike lane all make appearances. Looks like a great commute, but I highly recommend that Chris invest in some panniers for his rear rack. Any other tips?
