ha, those yellow rock shox on the game cover were all the rage way back then. like the mountain bike with quill stem look too, that turned out to be a durable combo eh? used to see muppets commuting on full sussers aswell. i had a cannondale M1000 with rigid pepperoni forks when i started. fucking thing lasted about 6 months before i got run over and lost the rear triangle. i never like being called a messenger because it doesn't really describe the job. but i used it in the end because shouting "courier" into an intercom would always get a "what?" in reply, it was quicker in the long run to say "cycle messenger"
