Bicycle Messengers


There are a great many different  vehicles used within the same day courier industry, which one is best for your delivery  will depend on a number of factors and your specific needs. Choosing the right vehicle can not only save you money but can also as ensure that your goods are transported in the safest and most secure way.

Lets take a look at the Bicycle Same Day Courier. Bicycle messengers have been used as far back as the 1860s, very shortly after the first form of pedal driven vehicles were developed.

Bicycles are ideal for deliveries within busy cities where traffic can significantly slow down other forms of transport, bicycles have a great advantage in that they can weave around the traffic getting your goods to their destination very quickly. They can carry a large array of items, anything up to roughly 20 kilograms and small enough to fit in a rider’s bag.


The costs are usually quite competitive for bicycle couriers as there are no fuel or road tax overheads that need to be added to the end price. Bicycles are really most suited for journeys up to a few miles in distance as once you get out the city centre and the traffic usually eases, the mileage to time ratio tends to tip back in favour of the motorised same day courier over the bicycle.

An entire community has evolved worldwide around the cycle courier industry, with dedicated websites and forums springing up to help connect cycle couriers from different countries. There is even a cycle messenger World Championships which is held annually in Melbourne, Australia.
This event is nearly 25 years old and consists of various bike races and competitions that cycle couriers from all around the globe are invited to compete in.

Cycle couriers in their respective cities are usually quite a close knit bunch, tending to frequent the same cafes and meeting places and really looking out for each other. Several charities and organisations have been formed in different cities to help cycle couriers should they fall on hard times or get injured whilst working.


So if you are in a city centre and have a small parcel or document that you need delivered somewhere not too far afield, the bicycle courier is more than likely your quickest and most cost effective option. Not only this but by using a cycle courier instead of a vehicle running on fossil fuels you are also making your own  small contribution to protecting the environment.
