Take on the pedicab fare

I am all about ripping off tourists, if for no other reason that they
interrupt my commute home with all their picture taking, slow walking
and sidewalk huddling. But even I was shocked when I saw how much the
pedi-can guys charge unsuspecting Asians at the Hilton on 6th Ave.
one guy charged $3/minute, not $3 per ride or $3 per city 10 minutes
but $3 per minute which translates to $180 per hour or $375,000 per
year which I think is more than the US Postal team gets for climbing
10 miles into the Alps each summer
