So you wanna be a bike messenger?
NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
Can you ride a fixie?
With no brakes?
With toe clips?
Can you bunny-hop a fixie?
Over a 4-foot fence?
Can you do a 180 reverse?
Off a 3m drop?
Can you do a sliders and keo spins and nose pivots?
Can you slip out of your toe-clips in a pico-second to slide under a jack-knifed semi-trailer?
If you said no to any of these, you ain't no bike messenger...

What about the evasion of numerous evil doers, in suits, with guns, in cars? Oh, and with mobile phones and probably walkie talkies!
Well, you'll have to practice your forward rolls:

I would make a better stunt double than messenger
Premium rush looks good, there was a movie made years ago with Kevin Bacon as a cycle courier, quicksilver, no tricks like this though.
This would help
