   I saw a guy on 99W going the other way hauling a riding lawn mower on a tow   
   dolly.  The front tires were on the dolly and the rear tires were on the   
   pavement.  I would guess his speed was around the speed limit of 55.  I   
   seriously doubt that either the tires or the transaxle of a riding mower   
   were meant to handle this speed.  No smoke when he went by and I didn't see   
   lawn mower parts on the road on the way home so I guess he made it.
