A tractor ride must be family friendly if you want more than just some tractor drivers to attend.
Trailers can be safe enough. You are not going to go more that 12mph or so. Probably half to three quarter throttle at the most.
Drivers must have a valid drivers license.
Alcohol has no place in a tractor ride.
Stay off the busy roads, rides can realy mess up traffic flow I would think.
That is the trouble with tractor rides, 1 tractor = 1 driver, NO RIDERS, what is the rest of the family going to do?
I have never been on a tractor ride, but I do it all the time when I drive between fields and the farm places. I always thought it would be neat to have a drive in the river valley here, drive to some remote park, have a picnic/cookout and drive back. What better way to spend a day?
You might want to set an age limit on the tractors, maybe pre-1960. You really don't want a new 200hp JD with duals following a '49 "B" JD.

I suppose if you go through towns you will have to get the law enforcement involved. Brian(MN)

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep.
