Drawing Bikes with Kids!

Every year, my local community hosts a wonderful event where kids (and parents and other family members with tails and without) come together to have some bike-related fun and knowledge. 
There is a chance to fix your bike, tighten straps on the helmet, find a good route to school or library, get a blinking light or reflective tape for free, there are mock urban courses to check if your knowledge about road signs is up to date, snacks and sunblock stations, and an ART TABLE! Where I draw with kids :) It is a great chance to be a part of biking community in the Bay Area. This year, I decided not to bring any black markers and ended up having lots of conversations about colors. My favorite expressions from this year's event were:
- I will have a cookie riding a bike - a golden one!
- Do you want to draw? Never! Give me a pencil!
- I will have a bike riding a bike!
- There will be sushi riding this bike.
- Shhhhh - I am listening to what my drawing needs.
