I agree - I call it R&R for my head, complete focus on the task at hand and screw the stuff that messes with your mind.

Long distance motorcycle riding has the same affect for me

"Long distance motorcycle riding has the same affect for me"

Bingo! I was just going to add that-- no radio, no passengers, just me and the machine... I find my tractor to be similar to my old bikes in that regard. It is definitely therapeutic.

I got a set of John Deere noise cancelling headphones to listen to my ITunes, but just need to remember to put it on airplane mode so I don't get interrupted while I'm on the tractor. Not a problem when I'm at the farm because cell service is so lousy!

Got the same set. Airplane mode always. Thinking of putting a gate up so nobody can drop by and interrupt MY seat time!! It really is therapeutic. If I've had a bad day and go home and do some tractor work, I come inside in a way better mood. After listening to all the bs all day it's nice to just not talk or be talked to.

There is nothing like a ride around the block to clear your head!

New study with taxpayer dollars to reaffirm the previous study done over 20 years ago.

Almost every truck driver has knowledge of this.


That's why I like my older machines with the ability to set the speed and stand up while mowing.

I must have a bad seat or bigger bouncers as I want to see a crackyourbacktor after 12 hours of mowing over rough ground!

Also, with the ability to stand up occasionally, my sweaty back side is allowed to breath. :D

Tractor time is my psychologist. Had 6 hours on the tractor Saturday with the I Tunes and really enjoy it. My mid back is a different story.

As a crackyourbacktor (that's a new one :laughing:) prolonged sitting is awful for the back. Bar none, worst backs are truck drivers followed by salesman who travel and farmers.
