Thanks for the advice on the helmet and chains Jeff. Ideally I would like to have two sets of rear wheels and tires. One with turfs and chains for the winter and the other with lug tires. Then just switch them out. That would save me from messing with installing tire chains all the time.

I made a weight box today for it out of scrap metal I had. I will fill it with old brake rotors and riding mower flywheels. I would like to pick up some wheels weights sometime for it too. I’m not a fan of loaded tires personally because I have had bad experiences with tubes leaking on old sets and rusting out the rim. Just had to replace rims on my allis chalmers B for that reason. That wasn’t a cheap fix.
