Transportation Alternatives asked the Today Show's Matt Lauer, Meredith Vieira and Al Roker to participate in the Commuter Challenge—and they agreed! In a segment that aired this morning (it was taped last week), you can see Al ride his bike, Meredith take a car, and Matt hop on a subway to Rockefeller Plaza from West 72nd Street and Broadway.
