Even when I was in my best shape I couldn't imagine carting people around.

It was pretty hard work but I did enjoy it. The best days were when was kept busy - Shrewsbury Bikefest was my favourite as the local council would hire me for the day and I hardly stopped moving.

Were you able to make a decent amount of money?

From the shows, yes. It was the day to day trading that fell short as Shrewsbury is a lot less touristy than people in the town like to think.
I lost count of the number of people who told me it was a great idea and that the town should have had something like this years ago, but then wouldn't take a ride themselves.
C'est la vie.

I know there are a few cities here that have it usually you work for a company that has the rickshaws and you rent it for the day and work as an independent contractor.
How much did you charge and did you have a flat rate or based on mileage?

I tried various charging schemes, what seemed to work best was charging by distance & number of people (£1.50 per person per mile in my case) The trouble was that tourists saw it as too cheap and wondered what the catch was, while the locals moaned it was too expensive (but after snubbing me would usually then go across the road and buy ice creams at £1.50 a piece.
)I still reckon the idea is sound but a different location and a few changes were needed to make it work. I'm still glad I gave it a go.

I like Gingerbread men, and i mean i really like them and your avatar(s) are just the right shape for a Gingerbread manwith icing on
Really? We do make gingerbread things all the time, especially a house at Yule, cos the dough is very forgiving for small peoples rollings out and rough handlings!
