A Courier on 42nd Street

I don’t know if this guy is a courier or not, but I like to think of him as such.  Without a car in Manhattan, it can be tough to get packages around.  Typically, you hail a cab and hope it can fit in; or wait to get one of the few minivan cabs.  Or pay for separate delivery…at their time, not your’s.

But this guy has an alternative for a bulky package:  skate with it.  I can’t imagine it was very heavy nor breakable, but it was a cool sight to see.  It’s a little hard to grasp from the picture, but the bag was huge and bulky.  It didn’t phase the skater, though.
