Hey, we used to do that same trick you mentioned with the bicycle tires
only we used baler twine instead of wire. Just wrap a long piece of
twine around the rear wheel and tie it tight.  Wonder if it would work on
tractors?  :-)

Ralph in Sask.

That's an idea, Ralph.  Bailer twine probably wouldn't do it on a tractor
tire but I am sitting here thinking about the big rope - I think it is 1
inch - that I have up in the hay mow on the hay track/trolley.  If that was
wrapped on a tractor tire like Charlie said he wrapped the bailing wire on
his bicycle tire I imagine the proportionality would be about the same.  I
wonder how long the rope would last ...
