I HAVE just read with interest Mike Rutherford's article in your November issue of CM, in which the LDoY was telling tales of his recent trip to see the US trucking scene.
How interesting to read of the exploits of George Ames, whose 370,000 miles/year (sic) puts UK truckers in the shade. I would be keen to learn how he does it, since it would entail averaging 50mph (the legal limit on much of the US highway network) for over 20 hours a day, for 365 days a year! Somewhat implausible I think you will agree. No maintenance either!
