They make adult size pedal trikes. That's what I'm thinking it was.

Three wheeled bicycle, if you will. This picture was referenced earlier. Looks like a Schwinn adult tricycle.

I had that exact bike in college. It was so great just to dump all my stuff in the little basket.

I would more likely classify it as a "cargo bike"--by and large, the "tricycle" name isn't used very frequently for adult-sized products. The most correct description would probably be "cargo trike".
