Got interviewed for a HellGate NYC Article about NYC Messengers:
‘For Cyclehawk, two of their main clients are the modeling agencies Elite Models
and New York Model Management, and this week was great for business.
Bolger remembers a time where there were almost 30,000 messengers
working the streets , but says now that number is much lower due to app –
companies and digitization.
Newer cohorts of cycling workers-now delivering mostly food—
have grown instead. but, because of things like Fashion week, there will always be a need.
“We’re still in New York City, and there’s still physical things that can’t be emailed and people still
need something done yesterday, said Bolger, who as of three years ago works full time as a Sanitation
worker for DSNY, while still running Cyclehawk.
I always joke with my friends, we’re kind of like vinyl records. People don’t really need us,
but we’re kind of cool and certain people can’t live without us.

The Fisher Brothers are selling the business to their employees!

The City Council passed a slate of bills on Thursday to improve conditions for delivery workers:
‘The six bills will establish minimum payments required for delivery workers, and allow workers to set a maximum distance per trip that they will travel, including parameters they can set around bridges or tunnels. They will stop apps from charging workers fees to receive their pay and require workers be paid at least once a week. One bill will force apps to disclose their tipping policies and make them more transparent to workers; another will stop apps from charging delivery workers for insulated bags, which can cost up to $50. And one will require that restaurants allow workers to use their bathrooms.’
