Trolleys or Bikes ...... ?

Post by guyscliffe »

Hi Guys ...
Just interested in knowing your thoughts,about Royal Mails new safer methods of delivering the mail.
In otherwords removing ALL cycles over a length of time,from every delivery office in the land.And then phasing in with the Park & Loop revision the nationwide use of the new trolley.

Quite simply,do you prefer :-

The Old Method ( Royal Mail Cycle ) ?

=== OR ===

The New Method ( Royal Mail Trolley ( Or Golf Trolley )) ?

:hmmmm :hmmmm :hmmmm :hmmmm :hmmmm

Cheers ....

Bike is the least physical method of delivery and is faster than a trolley.

25 years using a bike, the odd HTC has been around for the past year or so and i have kept away from them as i thought they would be bad and i would look like a fool using one, have used one twice now as i have been involved in planning as to see if they take longer etc and they are fine, takes no longer and in many ways make your job easier with form lefts etc, i'm sold i'm afraid to say.
