Hi Iva -- It's good to see that you found a reasonable priced solid wheel. I'll
have to check it out. The only one I found/bought was a pretty expensive 12.95
one. It also had the milage (well footage) tracker. When I got it I thought it
was a silly add-on feature, but I have to say I've found it to be so
interesting. I put it in the boy tank (in my livingroom) when I'm in there for a
couple of hours. Only Alan (my black/slate clan patriarch) uses it so far, but
he goes over a mile in a stint. Amazing! Donna
