Cavalry Couriers owner David Leopold on CBS News in 1985. A different kind of 'Road' scholar and the true King of The Street.

    Glad Dave’s still going strong. He used to hang around the UWS where we were young bike punks and he’d tell us how we had to come to Jesus. He meant well, but I never listened.

    I worked for Prometheus in the early 80s. Joanne was the best dispatcher. She would take modest doses of LSD and organize a table full of tickets, juggling boys all over Manhattan. I'd call her after a series of runs and she'd guess what corner I was at before I told her. B.W., the stock trading guy - I watched him cross 5th Ave and 59th street through a red light, sitting straight up, no hands on the bars threading through moving cars and disappearing between two box trucks. I also had to go pick up a package from a guy in the ER. But he wasn't a Prometheus guy. He was a dopey kid whose legs were smashed to bits. I mean smashed bad.

    Road bikes are top tier but fixed gear is fun and lets you save money.

    He seemed very proud of his menial delivery boy job. "It's like a surgeon's hands!", a minimum wage surgeon, that is. He probably works for Jimmy Johns now.

    I don't make minimum wage and I don't like you minimizing what we do.
