Vans X Fairdale (and kind of X Taj too)

 I had the wonderful pleasure of working with both Vans and Fairdale Bikes on a colab package. We took one of my signature bikes, the Taj 27.5" cruiser, and covered it in some special decals I drew. My character Giraffe is the star. He also appears on two Vans shoes they let me design (all veggie) and a water bottle and shirt from Fairdale. Pretty darned sweet project to get to work on. Oh yeah! They also had me bring Giraffe to life in an animated short (that was not that short to make). I packed in a bunch of my bad giraffe jokes, sneaked in a Monty appearance, Steve Van Doren too and had a right ol' laugh making the thing. My buddy Niall Byrne of Redneck Manifesto fame allowed us to use his Bill Blood song as well.

The bikes he designs and builds are sought after by bike racers all over the world. However, none of his close friends seem interested in riding bikes. After a discussion with Monty the Corgi he realizes that his friends think they can’t ride bicycles because no bikes fit them. Bernie takes on the challenge to build his motley crew of pals custom bikes that they can ride. It takes all of his creativity and skills to design and build special bikes for T-rex, Bat, Shark and more!  Enjoy a free downloadable and printable Bernie the Bike Builder activity book   here.    The book is available worldwide from where ever you buy
