I’ve always thought of these guys & girls as urban heroes of a sort, probably fueled by my love of William Gibson books, so I can appreciate the pathos of this piece in WIRED, which reports the shrinking numbers of of bike couriers in the major western cities.
* William Gibson’s “Virtual Light” had a bike courier, Chevette Washington as it’s main character
Big thanks to CogMag for the amazing images
