One other postscript I can think of. I would expect that the bean
counters would find it hard to make this fly except in exceptional
places and times if the bike people claim equal pay and benefits as
regular union UPS drivers. And the Union will not let the Company
siphon off significant delivery business from their Union divers to
temp delivery people. -----but any inroads toward bike delivery is
great.

I would expect that they save more
than the fuel savings by paying the bike people same as their Christmas
temp "run to the house people." Not permanent--not union. But that
would be how it should be. That is a flexible open market for labor.
And that is good for the bicycle.
