Mark's Story

Wow. , Dining out and movies....how boring does that sound? Well, ok...I think dining out is pretty fun. I also like playing bartender and having friends over for cocktails and a wild game of cards or dice. lol. Dirt bikes is a new passion for us here. After high school I worked for years as a mechanic. I lost the passion to work on my own cars, so I became a tow truck driver. Because of the 24-hour nature of the towing business, I was able to attend school full time, work full time, and got my college degree in drafting and mechanical engineering. I met my wife to-be, Beth, at the college as she was taking the same classes. We graduated #1 and #2 in our class. Nothing came up in the way of employment in that field, so I trained and recieved my class A drivers license and went to work driving a semi-truck for a Heavy-Duty towing firm here in Sacramento.
