    Hi all,

    Does anybody use these for their business or any advice about this industry?
    If I did this it’s more to supplement my main job as I have lots of spare time.

    Not interested in local million drop Amazon type stuff, more interested in long distance type jobs.

    many thanks in advance.

    I haven't used these however I was a Courier for six or so months years ago. I worked for Bristol Flyers and travelled all over the country before the days of SatNavs, (I used to tape a clear bag to my tank with maps stuffed into that), even up to Aberdeen with Champagne and two glasses for some old dears 60th wedding anniversary, she was a darling and even cooked me dinner before my return back to Bristol. Great choice of work and I hope it works out for you.
    Best wishes fella.

    I did a couple of spells as a m'c courier in the late 1980's, in some ways great fun but also dangerous and I found it put me off biking for pleasure for a while after I stopped doing it.

    Thanks Guys,

    was only a thought and don’t think it’s going to happen now.

    That’s a shame fella, getting paid to ride your bike equals the perfect job.
