Saying goodbye

September 2011 we decided to leave Clarke Road Transport... it was a hard decision to make but one we were both agreed on.
We spent three and a half mostly happy years there, but unfortunately in the last year didn't feel we were getting the same miles as other teams.  It didn't seem to matter how long we were away from home, we rarely managed to hit bonus.  We were also looking for more variety, ie we seemed to only do trips to Dalton Georgia and back to Truro Nova Scotia whereas we knew there were drivers going to Texas, Colorado etc.
There were many times where we would deliver to Montreal or Toronto, return with a pool car to Moncton, New Brunswick and then be sent home to wait for a trip to Dalton Georgia which didn't always materialise :(  So as team this meant a two day trip, return home for two days and if there wasn't any or enough Dalton loads we would do the same again or as Roger says rinse and repeat...

Having said this we did enjoy most of our time at Clarkes and met some great friends who we miss.
