There’s a guy by me who collects scraps and sells compost. He uses a dump truck like the average cogent individual.
How stupid does a guy have to be to work for such a lunatic for six years?
Yabba Dabbba Doo!
Paying the $120k will improve her understanding of the world.
Apparently needs trailer brakes...
“..the entire load—waste, trailer, bike, Ibarra—adds up to almost eight hundred pounds.”
They’re talking the load of man, bike, trailer and waste weighing 800#, not just the load. That waste food is probably damp and packed into that container.
Since all that does have to be stopped I can see adding it all up. Still doubt the 800# figure though.
800 pounds? Uh huh...right. My commercial grade z-turn mower goes 850#. Ain’t no fargin’ way you’re motin’ that with a bycicle/trailer. I would believe 80 pounds. Of course, “journalists” have an insurmountable problem with math, units and physics. Real world stuff is way too hard.
She looks like Sideshow Bob.

Oh, ye of little faith...
You know the editor would have caught it had it been wrong.
Thats right, I forgot the editor has (apparently) gone the route of the RR Brakeman, Merchant Ship Morse Radio Op and the caboose of a freight train.
Between the hysterics of the ‘female anchors’ over any problem or ‘so called’ disaster and the sloppy writing and lack of GOOD proof readers etc...
They rely too much on the computer and if spell check is on, nothing but possible ‘disaster’
“Apparently needs trailer brakes...”
Dude. This is an environmentally conscious company.
The brake pads. The cables. The lube for the cables. The cover on the cables.
All made from or using oil, the industry of death.

See, you didn’t know the guy weighs 400 himself.
They need to be given a break from the Laws of Physics?
Maybe their town can declare itself a Sanctuary City [sanctuary from the application of Physics].
Sometimes that mower of mine would throw off the drive belt that ran between the engine and the two hydrostatic drive pumps. The mower thus became a dead weight cow turd. A boat anchor’s boat anchor. Seems like it happened a lot on my long drive which was situated on a hill.
For rescue and to get the mower to a level, solid place for jacking it up for repair, I would lift the rear of the mower with my tractor/loader and tote it to the barn. That load was all that 28 HP tractor wanted going up the hill.
800#. Pffffttt.
Riding that bike with hand brakes down a hill with 800 pounds on a tiny trailer behind it is a job for the guys from Jackass.

Especially when with a little application of hard work she could have obtained that knowledge for free on the internet.
Not hard to believe if Ibarra weighs 400#s.
This is possibly the dumbest thing I have ever read about.
