Looking for a bike messenger (downtown or around)

I am a photojournalist/daily rider interested in following around a bike messenger for a few days as an assignment for class. Basically I want to tell the story of a bike messenger's typical day in downtown Los Angeles using small video cameras and still images to produce a 2-5 minute multimedia piece. If you are a bike messenger or know one who may be interested please give me an email and so we can set something up.
Thanks,
Matt

hey matt,
I don't think a lot of current bike messengers frequent this site... you might want to send an email to the Los Angeles Bike Messenger Co-op.. the website is www.labmc.com
good luck.

Or go to the corner of Hope and Kosciuzco way or to Flower under the 4th street ramp and talk to them.
Call me old fashioned but one would think that for a photo project visual contact would be important.

News flash, sign flippers are the new bike messengers, don't be left behind, the couriers smell bad anyway.

I was a Courier Franz before!
I helped win the war between ghetto kids and the raver techno squids. Without my help, I think we might have lost the battle.

No I just wear spandex and smell funny. Perhaps someday I will tell you the tale of the "Courierfranz".
