Just after I started yarning to Dave Grubb, he answered a phone call and I knew from his introduction that he was a genuine character.
“This is Dynamic Dave, the truck driver extraordinaire,” he said to the caller.
Dave works for Geoff Richard Transport and was driving a Kenworth.
“I have come up with general and have a backload of produce to pick up at Bowen,” he said.
Based at Walcha in NSW, I have never seen a truckie smile and laugh so much during a chin wag.
“I like humour in my life,” he said as he raised his arms in the air.
Outside work Dave restores old bikes and has three including a Ducati and a Yamaha.
He likes stopping at the BP Cluden for many reasons.
“The facilities are clean, the food good and it has happy staff,” he said.
