This photo shows an African-American courier standing next to his black e-bike. He is wearing a blue, long-sleeve, denim, button-front shirt; charcoal gray chino pants; a black bike helmet; and a large, black, box-shaped backpack. His right hand rests on the right handlebar. His left hand holds a white contactless payment device. A smiling Hispanic woman stands in front of him holding her credit card over the payment terminal. Dressed in a loose white blouse and dark slender jeans, she appears to be paying for a delivery.
