Started throwing the Pensacola News-Journal in May '72, and I kept on, other than a short excursion to work at a motorcycle shop.The first route was taken to pay my dad back for helping me buy my first true "10-speed Italian" racing bicycle, a Bottecchia. I threw the papers from a Sears/Puch/A-D, I swapped the drop bars out for up-right traditional American bars, that could hold the canvas bag others have posted about in this thread. Also, I managed to pay for several motocross motorcycles as well as my bicycles. With tips included, I usually made around $80 to $100 weekly from that large route, that was really good money back in the early 70s.
