David Sykes grew up in Geelong Victoria in and around the family transport business which was started by his father Roger in 1959. From a very young age David had a passion for transport and spent all his spare time helping load trucks in the company depot or going away on long distance trips as an offsider with other drivers.
He completed an apprenticeship as a heavy duty diesel mechanic in Sykes Transport's Geelong workshop. At the age of 20 he purchased his own truck and left the family business to experience life as an owner driver and successfully transported goods all over Australia for various customers and other transport companies.

That rude woman at admin I just had to get my truck weighted terrible experience trying to communicate through a tiny gap in window to pass paper work and payment very barricaded can't see or hear what she is saying properly either.
