On the level? Great news, if it is!

Does anyone know if UPS really intends to use bicycle-based deliveries for five different Salem-area zip-codes?  Or is this just someone spoofing the President of the Salem Bicycle Club?  Wonderful if it's not a spoof!

Dear Mr. Maurice,
 I am contacting you in regards to a UPS Job Posting. We are going to be hiring seasonal driver helpers, who will ride a bike to deliver packages to help cut done on emissions. If you are able to get this information to your members I will happily mail or email you a flyer. We will be looking for employees in Salem zip codes 97301, 97317, 97309, 97303,& 97385.
Thank you,
