When I was a kid in Kentucky, we had 5½ acres… and it was pretty much my responsibility to keep it all mowed. Our Bolens Power-Ho tractor had a reel mower attachment, but it was awful… so my father (Edward H. Roberts) designed a rig that used the tractor/sulky to pull a pair of properly offset lawnmowers. I spent many hours driving this contraption around, and like to joke that it set the tone for my later development of Winnebiko II and BEHEMOTH (geeky bicycles with trailers - see link below).
