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

14. February 2017 by the editorial office

News in brief: There is hardly a city on this planet where a traffic gridlock is a part of everyday life like the Indian mega-metropolis Mumbai. "We love cycling“ sent three of the best bicycle couriers in the world to the 20 million megacity and accompanied them on a food delivery. This resulted in a crazy 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.
