A super-sized trike is for sale at The Warehouse. Owner Scott Moe says the non-functional art piece comes from a vendor in Windom, Minn., and the metal rear tires, weighing a combined 300 pounds, are repurposed from farm equipment. “We get a lot of people stop and come over just to take pictures with their kids,” Moe says, “I kinda hate to sell it, it’s a good draw.” The large trike is priced at $1,200.
