UPS bicycle delivery!
In the age of PDF files and Facetime meetings, bike messenger jobs were looking like a thing of the past. They are far more scarce than they used to be, but UPS sees the value in the concept...

For a moment I thought this might be about ordering a bike online. I'm glad to be wrong, this makes me smile.
There's a sandwich shop out here called Jimmy John's. In Seattle they deliver by bike. It's just easier, they move faster through traffic, it's dense so they're not going far, and you can park a bike anywhere. When the company I work for moved to Lynnwood, we learned they deliver by car up there. Most off my coworkers doesn't care, but as a cyclist I was a little disappointed. Appreciate this, thanks for posting it.
