Any other examples?

I found this in a bric-a-brac in Mernda.

Yvonne Kraft. Former messenger. Now racing world cup mtn biking. Competed at the last summer olympics. Will be competing in the next one as well.

I hope Dexter competes in the paraolympics - he would crush people. It would be pretty spectacular.

I hope this thread turns into another who would win in an alleycat in nyc, the messengers or the professionals.

that guys amazing, honestly one of my biggest heros..

wow - that's pretty stupid.

go visit another thread.
thanks

that's like the argument of who would win in a basketball game: the guys at the garden or guys from the nba. sure some of the street ballers would do well, but there's a reason they're not in the nba with a few exceptions just like messengers who turn pro/go to the olympics.

ah crap! i've just helped hijack this thread to your liking.

(Sir) Hubert Opperman rode a bicycle from the age of eight as a Post Office Messenger, until his wife Mavys, fearing for his health and safety, forced him to stop riding in 1994 on his 90th birthday. His trusty Malvern Star bicycle was donated to the museum in Rochester, Victoria. At the age of 91 he died of a heart attack, while he was on his exercise bike in his home in Wantirna, City of Knox in Melbourne.

Vails was a keirin racer as well, according to his brother Earl he made a ton of money racing in Japan.

And yeah, I hope Dexter gets his **** together and does the paraolympics as well.

That's badass, much respect.

Chuck D was a messenger? Haha.

TAKI 183 was a messenger? Holy shat.

Puck from the Real World was the most non-surprising.

Didn't only do it for a couple months though? Then banked off the Real World and stopped?

Who is dexter?

Taki 183 was a foot messenger, that's why his tags were on the subways.

More to the point, Jennifer Aniston?

Vails was a messenger in real life and then played one in *ahem* that movie.
