DES MOINES, IA (08/16/2012)(readMedia)-- Young Fairgoers pedaled their way to victory at the Pedal Power Pull held Tuesday at the 2012 Iowa State Fair.
In the Pedal Power Pull, kids attempt to pedal a mini tractor 40 feet (a "full pull") pulling a box weighing from 80 pounds for 4-year-olds to 260 pounds for 11-year-olds. In the event of a tie or two full pulls, weight is added and a re-pull is held to determine the winner.
