Courier Breed

When I was in NYC for Bicycle Film Festival this year- running packages for HQ, I think I said to somebody that I occasionally had flashes of missing being a bike messenger.  Those flashes lasted about 30 seconds.  Even when I was a courier in Austin it seemed like things were waning.  Things are worse now.  Here is the tale of Boston today.  I feel like messengering is one of the most over-rated yet under appreciated jobs one can have in the United States.
