People who have no business being a bicycle delivery person, because it was such a gnarly job, can do it without the requisite skill.
Bicycle delivery is such a terrible job lol, I got paid $4.25 an hour plus tips and rode in all weather. There were days that were too icy for the cars and the bikes would still go to work. Ebikes are rad though, I wouldn't use one because I don't want it to get stolen, but they are a good thing. Not cheating. Plus being a good delivery person is more about route planning than fitness.
