Transportation

If you haven’t done it, you don’t know.

Driving anything on public roads and highways is a skill taken for granted.

When operating a large vehicle, it takes an awareness of all the other drivers that are not paying attention, especially in making tight turns and stopping in congested areas.

Packing any vehicle takes an amalgam of geometry, physics, weight distribution and strength to place the items in a secure manner so they work when you get to the other end of the trip.

To make myself more attractive to management companies and build viable opportunities in and outside of the industry, I acquired a class 1 license in 1979.

This has proved invaluable when co-ordinating transportation for any event.

Modifying the van trailer to move theatre flats and other staging or loading concert production rigs, requires an understanding of what is needed in the venue first, managing the weight distribution for travel, then time and fuel management to get from point A, to point B.

I have travelled all over the North American continent from Stewart Alaska to Key West Florida and Goose Bay LAB. to Mexico city.

Required as a convoy tour management, driver and road management, managing permits and travel restrictions like weather and other hurdles is something that can not be learned in any school.

When I was not touring with production equipment, I would hire out this skill set to commercial carriers and bus companies as temporary holiday relief, dedicated recovery or urgent overload.

This led to many adventures and meeting some amazing people in situations that both enlightened and stressed, but always added to the knowledge bank.
