Hello SuperD

Paul, it is an intriguing and unusual machine isn't it?
I would like to know more about Queensland's Falcon Mowers,
and find an original brochure on the ride-on.

The wide base of the rear wheels makes me think this was a
machine designed to take a wider cut ... maybe.

Every now and then these unusual designs spring up...
like the reel equivalent to your Falcon, the British Anzani
Easimow (not sold here):

These machines just catch the imagination.
And you have one! I suspect you are an astute collector,
probably influenced by Slim Dusty in your childhood.

p.s. That's an interesting point you make about early music influence:
"it has been burnt in to my subconscious for Eternity."

There is no denying that good country music is soulful and is
in harmony with rural life and experience. I guess that reflects
its being influenced by the blues genre.

I have a love / hate relationship with country:

Love:

Hate:


I can't wait for you to get this machine, and share with
us - and record for history - the little Falcon Trike Mower.
Safe trip.

The rest is history.
