My girl Maggie and I meet up with our drivers for the evening. Seamus is a veteran Red Guy rickshaw driver and Brent is a seasoned Green Guy. They compete directly with each other for passengers all over the streets of Halifax for 4 months of the year. The sexier driver gets more rides from the femmes , but sometimes charm wins them over. 2-3 young women in a rickshaw means lighter cargo and higher tips.
Sex sells , it's a fact.
Teasing these young, buff , entrepreneurs can be fun and they will admit that it is an entertaining part of the job . Maggie and I asked our hunky rickshaw drivers some questions. Yes, for the most part we all get along. I was disappointed last week when they didn't show up for my weekly barbeque. Brought tears to my eyes.
