Bobby had a love for trucking and drove over the road for years seeing all parts of the US. He collected unique local beers from the different states that he visited. In 1992, Bobby and his three boys opened their own trucking company named Nolen and Sons Truck-ing. Bobby continued to drive until he was forced to retire about 15 years ago due to health complications.
