9. 2/2 Use a long masterlock to lock the derailur and the chain and frame all togettther so the bike cant be ridden and leave it in a very public place and make sure to notify a manager or a store worker or a guard to watch it for you for a few minutes, this way you wont have to deal with heavy fucking ulocks and those stupid combination locks that just get fucking broken and youll have real live human security.
10. You will not get that tired, this is not the tour de force, and as a courier who started his independant gig (unsucessful btw) even 60mi of lightweight city riding isnt difficult and you wont get tired. You will however run out of water and food and you will have to buy that shit from someplace thats a 7-11 or some shithole. Bring real filtered water (preferably RO) and a lot of it and bring real food you can use from home thats organic and nutritious as your body will need real fuel not some cheap kindbar or brekafast burrito shit that wont fuel you properly.
11. Cars are the enemy, even moreso when youre a courier, they see you delivering shit and they dont fucking care, most drivers are half asleep anyway so dont even get near them, in most states its not illegal to get on the sidewalk and most cops wont even prosecute you for it when you do. STAY AWAY FROM CARS, even if theyre good drivers you are on the clock trying to make good time and you might make a mistake that could cost you an injury, and that means not making money on the bike.
12. Delivering with ubereats is better as ive never ever gotten a single fucking delivery with postmates, some apps will be literal dogshit and wont even let you sign up like drinkers and doordash in your city, ubereats is the way to go and it usually works and gets your deliveries. Be careful about data useage and battery power, remember keep a charger.
