yep an advertisement for every bike courier to start their own thing.
A few guys in Sydney have done it and they have gone well.
I guess the secret is to be competitive and not get greedy. I know that every guy who has tried to work for themselves has not LOST and those that try to crate a bigger company have a very hard time against the bigger companies. They start small as solo riders and then get guys to cover the work they can not keep up with...
The sooner more guys and girls do this the sooner we will see the abuse by the bigger companies fault into submission.

It is very easy to become a working self employed bike courier. It is hard to keep it up.
Just ask yourself if "Mex can do it" but he did not start it might be your answer but boohoo to you.
Ben started a few years ago... Look at him now.
Trumpet Pete started it... look at him now.

they all have a variety of concept and style and they all work.

I guess this brings up the same old debate of Co-Op...

I have a cool idea that is a short time off fruition... And it is a few things. Bike Courier friendly, bike friendly and a hub for bike riders in general. I will keep you posted.
