Another option that has not been mentioned yet is to add one or two offset hitches on the rider you have now and pull trail-behind mowers for additional cutting width. I don"t know if your rider would have enough traction or power to pull extra.

Assuming that you overlap each swath by 4", that leaves you cutting 34" on each pass. Going to a mower that has a 48" cutting swath will also cut down on mowing time considerable for starters because you don"t loose so much overlap on say a 100 foot wide strip.

Many tractor mowers do a really nice job if an area is kept mowed on a regular basis. They aren"t as handy if you have objects to mow around.

A "finish" mower on a tractor would leave a nicer cut than a regular rotary mower.
