Somebody asked me the other day why I ride my motorcycle. I sometimes ride my motorcycle to nowhere in particular and get to see some pretty amazing things. Being free of windows and doors allows me to see and smell things that would normally go unnoticed. Freshly mowed grass, plowed fields, blooming trees, lakes and rivers — all of these sights and smells are much more vivid on a motorcycle.

Basically, riding enhances my life. If I equate this to the world, it used to be watching a television with three channels or how a computer was something that was in a lab in some secret location. Now with all the availability of broadband, I can pull up to some remote lake and take out my iPhone to find information on it. I not only can see where I am, but most likely see the history of the place, how large it is, or any number of obscure facts about it. So what has happened is that broadband has grown to enhance something as simple as a motorcycle ride through the country.

That’s how we at Clearfield see the world. We can create products that work or we can create products that work for us and enhance our lives. If you ride along with the Clearfield crew, you can see things from a different perspective that will improve your network. The idea is to have products that work smarter and more reliably for you so that those worries that normally accompany a network operation simply don’t exist anymore.

Take a look at some of the new Clearfield products to see if we can help enhance your network. And who knows, with all that time you don’t have to spend worrying about your network, maybe you’ll have some time to take that ride you’ve be wanting to. If you do, send me a picture of your favorite spot!
