ROTFLMAO

Typical public service bull****.

Training providers in NSW = none, so has great potential there.
I am actually wondering if there is anyone alive that actually used a
"delivery bicycle" when these were "normal".

What about a user of a purpose-built delivery bicycle these days.

"Inspect bicycle for operational capabilities" is a real **** take.

Yup. Bloody heavy thing with a tiny front wheel with a heavy gauge
steel basket frame in front.

AusPost were using lots of them back in the dark days when we only got
11 postal deliveries a week.

Not that long ago sonny. :-)
