Heard about this on NPR this weekend. Seems like a cool idea for people who want to ride a bike for a living.

I always thought someone like Cafe Marco would be a good person to hire some of us to deliver his stuff. Especially when you deliver to places like the coop.

I thought about bike delivery CSA shares but I guess this might take the community aspect out a little, not really but some.

It is pretty cool that people can place orders and have it delivered. On NPR the guy who started this said there were expanding to use more farms and start delivering to restaurants. The farm they get the produce from is only 6 miles from town.
