                  Had two, my sister's old one, and one of my own. I had a smaller, Big Wheel-like knock-off when I was a bit younger, but the Big Wheel lasted me until I was 9 or 10 or so. That thing was freaking awesome. Had the hand brake for spinouts. Me and my friends would cruise down the inclined sidewalk of my street, take a mean right into the driveway, and spew gravel dust all over the place. My sister's old Big Wheel had a brake that stuck, so my friend ended up using it as an ejector seat more times than not...

                            See my edition of Nerd Therapy Session:

                            (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wALUndmMW0M/T2ZzdxUnbCI/AAAAAAAAAlc/UaRwc2OaN08/s1600/tigerscooter.jpg) This week, my pal Sharry is guesting the NTS spot and describes something we can all relate to, unrequited toy love (why don't you love me Stretch Monster?). Even as an adult, it's sometimes hard to get what you want. More after
                            "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
                            'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
                            Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
                            If your mission is magic your love will shine true."
