Need for speed

Added 2022-05-25 06:21:03 +0000 UTC

Working on a piece that includes a bunch of motor bikes. So I figure I’d work on some sketches of different bikes. Some real some not so real.

It’s funny, growing up motorcycles were one of the things that were off limits for us. Y’see my uncle died riding one. It was hardly a bike issue though he was hit by a drunk truck driver. No weed, tattoos or motorcycles. Broke the first couple rules but I always thought the last one went double for me since i was compared to him so much, in looks or in mannerisms.

Still always wanted one though. Even funnier I think life threw a couple warnings at me since I got hit by a car (twice) riding my regular bike. Like “damn Raul can’t ya take a hint?”

So for now, no need for speed. I’ll settle for drawing them, hard enough as is, and believe this article’s narrator in their experience with motorcycles.

How one has never felt so alive
