I shared a weekly route with a friend one summer on my bike in the '80s. We basically were covering for a couple that delivered by car at the time. I look back on it now kindof fondly but honestly it was brutal as we lived a couple miles away from downtown and had single speed dirt bikes. Wrapping up papers and huffing two big bags of papers isn't exactly a dream job. The couple asked us the next year if we wanted to do it again... we said no. :D (I do remember one family would tip us 20 dollars though! They specifically wanted their paper delivered in a wicker basket they hung on their door and you bet we always put it in there)
