[Blackbelly] TravelWithRonK PremierLimo transport service
**Biosecurity concerns **Valuable animals to move **Animals needing special handling **Short timeframe transport needed TravelWithRonK's PremierLimo service is your answer! Using either of my tow vehicles and either my 14x5 trailer or my 20x6 double deck trailer TravelWithRonK can provide that specialized transport that you desire for one animal or a large load - starting from my Texas base I will go to your pick up site, pick up the animal(s), transport them in minimal time to your drop off site, and then return to my base to see pictures of the TravelWithRonK 'bus' and 'limo' options go to: http://www.JackMauldin.com/ - go to the 'Our Articles' section and click on 'Transporting' (thanks Jack!) - while on Jack's site be sure to see the gorgeous animals on the 'Enoblements' page - those are the 'best of the best' of the Boer breed! the very first ever PremierLimo transport trip was completed June 3rd - 9400 miles were driven at an average of 54.5 mph - the 'limo' concept lived up to my vision for the service: west TX to east GA - 2 day delivery west NC to southwest OR - 5 day delivery west AZ to east KY - 4 day delivery A comment about PremierLimo fees - when you compare a bus ride fee to a taxicab fee there is a significant difference - the same applies to PremierLimo fees - bus service depends upon a large number of riders contributing a smaller amount each toward the total cost of transport service - limo service depends upon one or a very limited number of riders paying the total transport fee - the same applies to PremierLimo - PremierLimo fees will be considerably more than bus fees but when your circumstances warrant the expense then PremierLimo will provide the service I always need pick up city/state, drop off city/state, and a brief description of the animals in each email - I do not monitor the groups closely so please reply to my home email address rkee...@realtime. net -- Thanks to restrictive USDA regulations I no longer transport dogs! Please let your local USDA inspector know how stupid it is to apply 'pet' transport regulations to climate acclimated working dogs! With enough pressure maybe we can get the government morons to recognize the difference between lap pets and working livestock dogs and that working dogs transport best in the trailer with the livestock we expect them to protect with their lives! --- questions?

[Blackbelly] TravelWithRonK for sale? .. well no but ...
I am not getting any younger and my health is not the best - the stress of being on the road TOO much is catching up with me! so I am exploring the possibility of becoming a two man operation - that being a driver/equipment maintenance supervisor and a marketing/planning/organizing supervisor - if I can find the right person for the driver role I would seriously consider semi-retiring! I am thinking along the lines of an 'internship' so that I can be sure that I am happy with the person and the person is happy with the lifestyle that driving for TravelWithRonK entails! the internship would be that the driver would be responsible for the PremierLimo driving services for a period of time - the limo concept has totally surprised me by how many potential riders have come forward just in a couple months of operation - I was expecting that PremierLimo would just fill my 'free' time between bus trips - instead it is showing signs of being a full time service after the new driver is comfortable with the life style then I would give him the opportunity to buy into TravelWithRonK in a large way and to start doing coast to coast trips - eventually we would change roles where I am doing limo trips and he is doing bus trips the ideal person to fill the driver role would be: a single male - a bit of a loner that enjoys highway travel ideally an early retiree who has a guaranteed income a non-smoker non-drinker with adequate social skills most likely a change of residence to Austin TX would be required willing to live a spartan lifestyle in close contact with animals someone who has animal experience preferably sheep and goat someone who really CARES about the animals and ENJOYS them someone who is able to invest some cash capital into his future someone who is dependable and will be in for the long-term someone who can interface with customers face to face and by phone someone who puts the customer's needs first someone who is willing to go the extra mile for the customer someone who is detail oriented but can adjust 'on the fly' someone who has above average vehicle mechanical knowledge someone who can handle the stress of 'on the road' problems someone who can interface in detail with mechanics someone who can keep daily records and balance sheets did I say he could leap tall buildings in a single bound! my role would be marketing, negotiating with customers, creating an itinerary, coordinating on the road activities, and PR activities - I would provide daily updates to the customers and to the driver via email and phone what do I offer in return? the driver would own a part of TravelWithRonK he would inherit a word of mouth reputation for service he would have the opportunity to eventually purchase TravelWithRonK he would see lots of beautiful scenery he would meets lots of unique people his name would become known across the small livestock world he would have lots of tax deductible expenses he would profit share with me if you think you might be this 'superman' then please respond to my private email address rkee...@realtime.net - try to address briefly each of the driver points above and give me some idea of the 'type' of person that you are - if you are planning on getting rich quick don't bother replying - you will earn every penny of profit in this business! - but it can be a very emotionally rewarding lifestyle! -- Ron and Corgi co-pilots Tina and Jeremy (AKC) operating from a base near Austin TX private email at rkee...@realtime.net web site at http://TravelWithRonK.com group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TravelWithRonK ___ This message is from the Blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
