change top to bottom that gets mowed on the Delta, at the resort where
we go steamboating every year. The groundskeeper's lawnmower has a long
rope with a wooden handle on the end so that it can be 'lowered' over
the berm and retrieved. Works really well.

The roads / highways around me have some quite steep embankments and
it's pretty scary watching the mowing crews with the full sized tractors
and triple mower decks operating at what must be a 30+ degree angle. I
haven't seen one on it's side yet though.

They can come mow my place...

I could reverse the rear wheels on my tractor, which spaces them out a
few inches. Much of my problem is just not knowing how much tilt is too
much -- it's not like you can fall over half way then stop and back out.

Weld up a set of training wheels...
