Spectrum: [Video] The Mumbai Mess: Three bike couriers in Indian traffic madness

February 14, 2017 by the editorial team

Short news: There's probably no other city on the planet where traffic gridlock is as much a part of everyday life as the Indian megacity of Mumbai. " We Love Cycling " sent three of the world's best bicycle couriers to the 20-million-strong megacity and accompanied them on a food delivery. The result is a hilarious video.

Bicycle couriers have an extremely demanding job anyway. Austin Horse, Allan Shaw and Cécile Bloch are among the best in their field and that's one of the reasons why they have had the dubious honor of working on The Mumbai Mess project. The task: to transport a warm meal from point A to point B. In rush hour. Without bike lanes. With countless pedestrians and cows between the stationary traffic jams. How does that look in action? Check it out in the video.
