The kid with the trike. I had one like that at his age also and hated it. It was heavy and awkward, couldn't take a sharp turn like the other kids with real bikes. I was ashamed of it like i was a baby with a tricycle. I never got a real bike till I turned 12 and got a paper route and bought one with my own money. Sob sob...

Yeah, that kid was a sissy with a 3 wheeler! look at the big hub on back...got brakes?

Yep; my neighbor buddies were ruthless about your ride. Newc

Voice from the distance... "Jimmy get back here right now and put on your propellor helmet! You know it's mandatory for the big trike! "

That's right too! No brakes, just the full time chain driven pedals. I actually rode it only once, down hill, pedals whirling, feet out to the sides, straight into a power pole at the bottom of the hill. It never left the basement again.
