Coffee At Birkdale

Car of the Day:

2005 – Present Bentley Continental Flying Spur

Character of the Day:

Keith – Hauln’ Hauler

Keith was quietly sitting right beside me and some past Characters as he was checking his phone. I realized after a while that he was probably amused by the conversation taking place. It was then I started getting to know Keith. He’s a local born and raised in Davidson. He owns a 20 year trucking business that was passed down to him from his Dad. I got a little insight into the trucking business. It reminded me of the energy industry, it’s very expensive to have capital that isn’t being used. The trick is to find that perfect balance in capital investment with market demand. After my trucking lesson I learned a little more about Keith. He’s married with no kids. I didn’t get to learn as much about Keith as I do with my past Characters since our interview was cut short. He did seem to enjoy the conversation and I’m sure given the opportunity it would have lasted longer. His favorite thing about Birkdale… “the atmosphere”.
