Raccoons Borrowed My Bike Volume 6
This week we're back to our regularly scheduled programming. Cute critters doing mountain biker things. I watched an owl swoop off the trail last week, and then make peeved owl noises at me from the trees, and it got me all excited to draw!
This week's header first appeared as the cover of a mountain bike 'zine I made last winter. I still have a few more raccoon-themed artworks to go use left.
Buckle your helmet Horse!
Sometimes while I'm drawing all day I imagine being a Youtuber and sharing all my cool thoughts and opinions all the time. And then my dog rolls her eyes at me and I go back to drawing.
Too often, I am Cricket. Right now though? Right now I have one bike I'm in love with and it's perfect!
All of my regular riding friends will appear in this series at least once or twice. Duck is a great guy, with a couple of very weird bikes.
Poor Pig indeed.
I hope you're having a great week. This marks 30 paintings in the series, the halfway point. My goal is to have all 60 wrapped and available in a book by June. We'll see though...the riding has been really good!

OMG the pig with one sock is so wrong and so right at the same time.

Pig needs to learn about using rocks, instead of socks.

Haha bat is amazing. There are some young'ns locally that won't leave home without their chesty mount.
A little too earnest and driven to be as stoked as they should be with youthful abandon but also still considerably faster than my old weekend warrior arse.
Such a great series, My.

If you are riding in Tennessee and find a Dr. Pepper tee shirt and a glove just leave it there.
About 25 years ago we did a group ride and 2 days in a row one of my buddies had emergencies. Day one he walked out of the woods without a shirt. It was odd because he wore the same Dr. Pepper tee shirt on almost every ride. The second day he came out looking like Michael Jackson with one glove. To this day any mention of woodlands pooping triggers these memories.

I had to teach a group of 6-11 year olds the "we don't touch clothing items we found in the woods" lesson. I sure hope it stuck!

I had a riding buddy that donated his long sleeve t-shirt, not a sock!

That’s a good installment, and I had a trials bike almost exactly like that one. They are heaps of fun till you snap three out of four stays at once and eat sh!t.
I miss it.

Uhhh we all bike in the woods right? Look for soft leaves.
Feel the urge, forage, purge. Just remember to bury your former food demons.
