Ian, I put N191BZ on wheel dollies that I fabricated with small casters (they have an overhanging lip that flips down as the mains roll on, and I use a 1/4" rod that slides in to act as a stop). The mains roll on fine, and I lift the tail with a loop strap (so I don't have to bend over and further harm my back), and plant it on another dolly.
The glider goes in and out of my hangar easily, just pulling on a wing tip... It does help to have an extra soul available for aiming. Not sure that a trolley is necessary.
