Rob Kerr - Myrtleford

How long have you lived in Myrtleford?

Fourteen years.

What do you do for a living?

I’m a mechanic - I work for the hop farm. I've been there six years.

What are your hobbies or interests?

Boats, bikes, cars, anything with a motor basically.

What do you like about the area?

Everything. We came here as visitors and we leased a site and built a caravan and annex in the park. When they were logging reform hill, when it was a pine plantation, we could see it from the park. So I took my five-year-old son for a walk, and that's how I found this property.

Where would you take visitors to showcase the area?

Normally I go up the top of the ridge line so people can see over the whole valley. It's a pretty stunning view up there. You can see over the whole town, the valley, all the way to the mountains. It's breathtaking.

Is there anything you would change about the area?

No. It's really a no brainer. It's a beautiful place, good people, good place to work, good place to live, good place to raise a family. It's perfect.

Do you have any ambitions for the future?

I’m in my 60s, so I’m supposed to retire in the next six-seven years. My only ambition is with my race car. I've already won a few titles with the car; back-to-back ones I've won. I want to make it a hat trick this year.
