The most badass tricycle ever to be given away!

This is my son, Hero.

Hero likes Mario.

He also has a badass tricycle that's still in great condition, but he's too big for it.

I know, I know... How can a tricycle be sweet enough to qualify as badass? Well, just look at it!

With all the awesome Steam gifting going on, I figured that I'd rather not have some random hell spawn of a Good Will shopper get it, and would rather have some random hell spawn of a PA'er have it! If you've got a kid around three that would like the most badass tricycle to grace the pages of the PA forums, than this might be yours!

Now, for the part everyone hates... The rules:

1. Must be an active forum member for at least a year.
2. If you happen to live close to Richmond, VA... you get priority. I'll be dropping it off with you personally if this is the case.
3. If no one close by is available, then you must live in the USA. Sorry to my friends overseas, but shipping is pricey! Finding a box that's badass enough for this tricycle will also be a minor issue.
4. The winner will be decided on by the 29th of February.
5. The winner must post a picture of their kid on their new badass tricycle in this thread. Unless you feel uncomfortable with everyone getting to see your hell spawn on the internet, then nevermind.
6. The winner will be PM'd to let them know they'll be the happy owner of a badass tricycle. I respect privacy, so its up to them whether they wish to let everyone know.


If you're interested, just post in this thread, or send me a PM if you're close and want to keep your location private!

    What if we don't have a kid that can ride that but would like to ride it ourselves?

    Because I would take that thing on some dates.

    Nerdtendo, that is very nice of you to give away your tricycle, but might I suggest holding off and waiting for the Child's Play auction that will be occurring soon and putting it up for bidding? That way a friendly forumer can still make use of it, and children in need will be able to benefit from the raised money!

  • jclastjclast Registered User regular
    If you do decide to give it away instead of going the charity route my quads are 17 months old and will soon be big enough for some sweet tricycle-riding action. I'm in Colorado though so while I'm not as far from Richmond as you can get I'm sure there's somebody closer that could make use of it.

    Consider me entered regardless though, and thank you.

    Oh, and if it comes to me I will totally post pictures of each of my kids sitting on the tricycle in turn.

    Quadruplets? You poor bastard. 6 hours with a pair of twins makes me want to tear my hair out...

    One kid at a time, with a couple of years in between each is my plan.

    Of course I realise that means I will probably end up with sextuplets or something...

    Yeah, my wife is a saint. I get to go to work while she's at home watching all 4. We got lucky that they came home from the NICU on a good schedule (less lucky that they were in the NICU at all, but that's what happens when kids come at 31 weeks instead of 40). They're also learning patience early because even if I'm there we're outnumbered 2:1.

    Please tell me you're dressing them up as the Ninja Turtles every Halloween.

    Also, the Child's Play suggestion is pretty fantastic. I wasn't aware of an auction... there a link with info?

    If you don't auction it, I would like to be considered. I have a just over 3 year old and a just under 2 year old.

    Not that I'm really complaining about charity, but this also kind of screws over anyone who might want/need the tricycle and can't afford the auction since everything goes for mad cash

    Naw, I decided that I'm keeping with the thread (since there's already interest going on), but I'm sure there's a few other things around that I could do.

    They actually were turtles this year. Don't know what we will dress them up as next year.

    Course, it might be difficult finding some of the renaissance era clothing.

    Update:

    I haven't forgotten about this. I'll make my decision by Leap day, February 29th! It's taking so long because Christmas hit me a lot harder than expected. Got really sick and had to hit up the ER. All is good, though!

    Also, my son's losing his first tooth. It's amazing how much more exciting that is as a dad.
