I remember Big Wheels. I used to have a Cabbage Patch Kids one.

I used to love riding these things! I even used to race in Big Wheel races at our local race track. I won several trophies that my mom still has somewhere.

LOVED THIS! I would ride it to work everyday if I had one that fit me now. It was so loud. Everyone could hear you coming. I especially like the seat situation. You could pull the seat off and move it back so you would fit better. Sometimes you could get a few kids on here. Super fun!

OMIGOSh! I had a cabbage patch teal and purple big wheel and it had a basket in the back to carry my dolls! Good times good times.

they still have Big Wheels. However, they no longer have the brake so you can skid out. That was the coolest part. I guess it was too "dangerous".

I loved these things my brothers and I would cruise the neighborhood and think we were sooo cool!!

I remember that we would ride these things until the front wheel started to get holes in it and crack into pieces!

Man, I remember that when I was 3 in 1985!

hahahaha,i had one as well,very loud,get a flat spot worn into the front wheel,stones in the back two,lol,ive thought about making one for adults,get a gang goin' ,lol

My big wheel days date back to the mid 70's. We had a large hill at the end of the street and all of the kids in the area would come out and race down it every Sunday. Then, when I attended Western Illinois University in the late 80's, Delta Ta Delta held big wheel races there every year for charity. Now with them back in the market, some old college buddies along with myself are going to hold a big wheel event in 2008 in a town with a large hill in the middle which ends up in downtown. We have several merchants on board, now we need to ok from the city. More info to come.

I loved my Big Wheel! I had one with a Popple on the front. I wish I had it now, but I rode it till the wheel broke to pieces.

My very first mode of transpertation. I remember the wheels cracking. I could've cried when mine broke. By the time i even got one I was beginning to be in the final stages of being small enough to ride one so by the time mine was worn out , I never got another one. I remember mine like it was yesterday. It was pink and white and had Daisy stickers all over it.

Thats where drifting started pull the brake and get sideways. I have scars all over from doing crazy stuff with my all black night rider wheel!

Awesome, I had that same one in the pic up there, my mom has a pic of me on it, then I was able to upgrade to a Carebears, lol.

I have so many great memories of my big wheel. Got my first one in the 70's. The best part was tricking my brother into pushing me so I wouldn't have to pedal. I rode all over the neighborhood and back on mine. I wish they made one for adults

I loved my Big wheel and went through alot of them as a kid.

My brothers and I had a Dukes of Hazzard Big Wheel. Had all the 01 stickers and everything. However, since we used it outside it didn't take long for all the stickers to fall off and then it was just orange and black.

Mine was AWESOME. It had a big purple wheel.

I had a pink and blue one. Basically the handle bars eventually fell off and there were big holes in the back tires. My cousin and I improvised and would just grab the front end and fly down our steep driveway in it. Man,that was so much fun.

OMG I wanted a Big Wheel so bad, I still have the pictures of me opening it on Christmas.

I had a purple one as well. I love how it had no traction what so ever!LOL

We all LOVED our Big Wheels. I still have a scar on my knee to show just how much I loved it!!

I had a pink and blue powder puff racer...I remember thinking "I love my Daddy because he lets me ride my bigwheel in the road, but mom buys me Strawberry shortcakes" what a shallow kid, huh?

I had a Big Bird Big Wheel.

I wasn't fortunate to own a big wheel because my father hated the noise that it made on concrete.He said it was annoying and too loud.. (miss you Dad) I remember it did have a small spring attached to one of the rear wheels that would make it sound tuff also..I also remember there was a small box behind the seat so you could put stuff in. My neighbors had them so that was the only chance I had of being close to one.

I had a big wheel when I was 3 0r 4 in Lebanon, PA. I lived on Spruce Street and I rode it up and down the sidewalk all the time. I had guns on the handles and rocks got stuck in the two back wheels and made a cool noise as they went round. Eventually the front tire got scraped down flat cause of all the skidding. Pure fun.

Mariah, I had the same cababbge patch w. the basket too! I LOVED it! I would love for my little girl to have one, but the closet thing i've seen are those plastci dora tricycles.

I went through 3 different big wheels as a child. I loved them so much! We lived two blocks away from the college in my town and the campus was my personal racetrack. It was a great time!

I looked up on the internet to find a picture of a particular big wheel I had, so far no luck. Unlike everyone else's big wheels mine was Gremlins. I miss it so much. I biked around the whole neighborhood in that thing. It was my freedom!

I had the Knight Rider version. It was sick

Woah I totally had a black... I assume Night Rider version... it was awesome... now I know mine was the best but I always wanted my friends Cabbage Patch one.. haha

I had the night rider version too and i remember it used to shot water too

Loved mine!!! I had a regular one like in the picture, but eventually it broke, for christmas I got the GI JOE veersion...it was really really freakin cool, it had fake gun turrets on the front and everything.

I had a carebear one. My sister had strawberry shortcake. We use to run around my grandparent's basement with them racing each other.

My Mom got mine from Dutch Boy!!! :):)

The big wheel in the picture was the same one that I had!! I loved that thing. I thought I was really cool riding on it.

My boyfriend's face was never the same after a big wheel accident. His older brother was riding the bigwheel while my boyfriend was standing at the back, holding the seat. My boyfriend fell flat on his face but didn't let go of the seat for some reason. His brother never heard him fall (we all know how loud those things were) and therefore pulled him on his face across the asphalt for quite a distance... Ouch!!!

My Big Wheel was the LAMEST looking thing - blue-and-white Smurfs design, complete with gigantic plastic Smurf head between the handlebars. I loved it, though. Remember how the static coming off the front wheel would make the hair on your legs stand straight up?

I WANT TO KNOW WHO ELSE USED TO TURN THEIR BIG WHEEL UPSIDE DOWN AND "MAKE ICE CREAM" BY SITTING ON IT AND SPINNING THE FRONT WHEEL BY THE PEDAL. THIS CHILDHOOD PHENOMENON SEEMS TO CROSS ALL REGIONAL AND RACIAL DIVIDES, UNITING US AS ONE. INSTANT ICE-BREAKER AT PARTIES WHERE THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE YOUR AGE. WORK BIG WHEEL TALK INTO THE CONVERSATION, THEN SAY, "DID YOU USED TO MAKE ICE CREAM W/ YOUR BIG WHEEL, TOO?" CHANCES ARE YOU WILL GET A RESOUNDING "YES!!!" WHAT THE HELL WAS UP WITH THAT?????

Big Wheel was my ticket to freedom! Riding it up and down the sidewalk with my friends in a big pack - the rumble of the hollow wheels - we thought we were so tough! I finally wore a hole in the right back wheel (too many spinouts I guess) and was blown away when I got a brand new one for Christmas - GOOD TIMES!

My cousins and I started out with the one pictured and then moved on to an Incredible Hulk model. They nearly killed me one rainy day by pushing me (it was faster that way) onto the road in front of my grandma's house in the country and a car came out of nowhere. Yet another toy that brings back the 'good ol days' when kids used to be active outdoors.

Heck YES I turned over my big wheel and made some ice cream!! Those of us who did so are undoubtedly the Chosen Ones and we just don't know it yet.....

Me too!!!!! I loved playing ice cream with my big wheel! I had a Knight Rider big wheel. I thought I was the coolest kid in my neighborhood with that bike! Memories....

I had a Dukes of Hazard Big Wheel

This thing was resilient, too. We used to beat the crap out of it.You could really get cooking if you took it down a hill.

I miss my Dukes of Hazard so much I have started making them for adults. My verison is a stronger but still light weight and just as fun. If you want one let me know at my hotmail email chadtally52 at hot mail dot com.

During the summer, I was on my big wheel ALL DAY LONG! It was pink with white wheels, light blue handlebars, and pink, blue, and yellow tassles hanging from the handlebars. Like someone else said, if they had them for adults, I would totally ride it! I remember winning a big wheel race at a mall when I was about 7 or 8.
