It is photoshopped. Even if the contents were light like cerial the mass would weigh over 1000 lbs. The wheels would bend and the tires pop. The shadows don't look right and even empty boxes would most likely flip the driver backwards.

It is photoshopped in that the people and some items standing on the street, as well as background and foreground, have been composed and copied, thats why there are graphical artifacts, like non-matching shadows and people gazing odd. But I take it from the article and the picture texts that the main motive, the bicycle riders, are real. The pictures have composed and edited toi maximise the contrast between modernity and backwardedness, and to show the giant buildings of the baqckground against the giant loads of the simple people with their bikes, says the text.

It is looking odd, and I would think "photoshop" too - if only I would not understand the texts and the article differently.
