The men who sat in the seats of those 100+yr old tractors, who operated the machines that worked the fields and built the roads, exposed to every sort of harsh condition for hours-on-end, will always have my utmost respect!👍

That roller isn't too bad to actually use for road repairs, at least when it isn't soggy out. Ever since the club bought it the members have been driving it around during events improving the roads on the grounds with it.

Excellent footage! Regardless of the rain I had a great time. Rain or shine I was behind the wheel of one of my tractors. The garden tractor parade was super fun! Thanks for sharing!

Nice video, too bad it was so wet Saturday. Nice catch on the roller being stuck. The Lego man is mine, I didn't put the sombrero on him Thursday or Friday as I didn't want it to get wet, so Saturday I made the mistake of trusting the weatherman.

It was getting so wet that the roller ended up shutting down early that day. Losing traction just getting out of the parking spaces is a pretty good indicator of conditions unsuitable for it.Later on it started carrying a bucket of ashes on the back for use as traction sand to try and help it along.

51:08 The roller really doesn't like wet grass, it slips and gets stuck. Usually if you had at least one wheel on packed gravel it was ok, but there was so much rain so fast it was getting stuck like that just trying to move around the steamer area between parking and picking up water from the tanks.

My son is at the 19:50 point talking to the guy in blue.
