I know I've figured out the name of this thing before, but cannot remember it to save my life. All my generic search attempts haven't turned anything up.

It would be an outdoor toy for the 8-10 set I'm guessing. The kids are seated really low to the ground in a molded seat with some kind of pedals in front of them. Their hands were on the side. Steering maybe? It was red if it matters.

I saw a neighbor boy on one last fall and located it on-line at the time. Can't find it now.

Was it some kind of recumbent bike?

Do you mean a plasma car or plasma bike?

It wasn't truly a bicycle. It was a red metal frame all low to the ground with mostly small wheels.

We love our plasmacars and it wasn't anything like that. More metal and seated upright with feet in front but really bent knees. More square and compact than even a small scaled recumbent bike would be.

Ugh, I think I found the thing on Amazon at the time and didn't save it.

ETA: I must have been writing my post when you posted!

Is it the ezy roller? It is not a molded plastic seat, but it does have small wheels and handles on the side.

Thank you for the help. It was at the very end of my amazon search history. Scary to see what all I look at on there. Fortunately not that much in the past few months so it was still there.

My DC love that thing in Learning Express. Maybe this is why you couldn't think of the name...(see Amazon title!!!) http://www.amazon.com/Ezy-Roller-Red-New-Version/dp/B000YCP1NA/ref=pd_sim_t_2

I thought you were talking about the flying turtle! (http://www.amazon.com/The-Original-Flying-Turtle%C2%AE-Teal/dp/B000K3QSYY/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1370255635&sr=1-1&keywords=flying+turtle) Those were SO fun! (But why are they so expensive?)

We LOVE our EZ rollers here! They get more use than scooters and bikes. My boys fly down the driveway! (Toward the house.)
