They've made a unicycle-type thing with 2 wheels side by side, called a Dicycle, I believe. Sounds like you're describing a 3-wheel version, which makes 50% more sense.

Okay, found a 3-wheel version is commercially available, called a Pedalo. Note that this is wheels and axle only, not a "tricycle" as such, so it may or may not be what you were thinking of. Also note these folks sell all manner of variants of it, but mostly a kid thing:

A movie of one of these, although a 2-wheel version:

"Pedalo" is also used to refer to pedal boats and maybe pedicabs, but 99% of the google hits for it are for the pedal boats.

I have always been intrigued by these 'offbeat' ideas that never, almost never, make it into the mainstream. Guess that is cause they are ideas that do not fill a void.

WOW!!
The first 'bent on the page is a hypercycle! My friend had one of those yeeeears ago.
We called it his "love me" bike...
Couldn't ride 10 feet without someone asking ...XXX?
Thanks for that link Gary, I'm sending it to him.
Would reeally like to try that T-4-2, too!

"oops i meant perpendicular to the bikes axis...90 degrees from the bikes pictured!!! "
The first bike shown with 3 wheels was inline just like the bottom picture on that last link. So 90 degrees from that puts them side by side. If that's a recumbent, it's an awfully funky one akin to the recumbent unicycle.
