Delivered the afternoon Richmond News Leader for three years or so in the early-to-mid '60s on a Schwinn Corvette. The Sturmey 3-speed helped a lot in that neighborhood. I was in the Scouts concurrently and on a trip out west to Philmont there was a side trip to Pikes Peak. While at the top I saw a customer from my route, walked up to him and pretended to collect from him, "News Leader, thirty cents."
