They contacted me and now want to do a human interest story on my commuter cycling. If they called, you would you let them do the story? Your feedback is appreciated.
As part of Bike-to-Work day, I let a film crew follow me from home to work about 10 years ago. They did a great job. The only thing I've had to deal with is the "shower scene" where they put a camera outside the shower at work and took pictures of my feet and me reaching around to get my shampoo. They didn't tell me they were going to do that and got a good reaction shot. People in my bike club still rib me about it!
Go forth and be filmed. You can do a lot of good for bicycle commuting.
