Remember the Big-Wheel

Do you remember the Big-Wheel?

Cruising around the block as fast as you could all summer long. The wind in your hair (helmets were not in then). By the end of the summer the front wheel was usually more of a square than a circle, but that didn't matter because you still looked cool cruising around.

My sister and I had pink big wheels and loved cruising around on them. Then one day some new neighbors moved in. They had two boys who were about our age. Every time we would head out on our awesome Big-Wheels they would come out and get on theirs and chase us and yell things in Spanish to us. We did not speak Spanish and I am not sure if they spoke English. I just remember trying to plan our rides when they might NOT come out and chase us.

Josh's Grandma brought him a Big-Wheel the other day. He instantly loved it, and he couldn't wait to ride it. His legs are a little short for it, but I am sure by the end of the summer his wheel will be a square, and he will still look awesome.
