Geez, I've been guilty of this myself.

(pulling on my prop) Guess I'll go back to pushing on the roll bar behind the pilot's head. (RV 8) Not sure if this works on a side by side RV. For pulling it in the hangar, I have a small curved piece of PVC water pipe I got as junk from home depot, use that as a handle, and then inserted a 6' long waterski type rope thru that, (with a closable hook installed) and wrap it around my tailwheel strut. The tail wants to "wag" as you pull your plane, but you soon learn to master that. Works great. Got the idea here on VAF years ago, so the credit goes to that fellow. Oh, and it doesn't take up any room, ie easy to toss in your forward baggage comp.
