From the mind of illustrator and professional mountain biker Jill Kintner, this new animated short combines a mountain bike video with a whimsical animated adventure through an enchanted forest. Watch it here…

This isn’t bikepacking related in the faintest sense, but we love animations, artwork, and mountain biking, so we thought this new project from Olympic mountain biker and artist Jill Kintner was worth sharing. Watch this wonderful little children’s book vibe video below and scroll down to link to Jill’s artwork used to make it…

“Bandit Hill is a whimsical adventure through an enchanted forest filled with woodland creatures ready to play! Mountain biker and artist Jill Kintner brings her beloved character drawings to life as they race down Bandit Hill to outrun an onslaught of angry clouds and terribly behaving weather. Full of mud monsters, happy trees, and fluffy clouds oozing personality, the trio of Squirrel, Fox, and Snail look to Jill to save them from the storm! This magical, hybrid animation and live-action piece brings together one of the world’s top mountain bikers with a faraway land pulled straight out of her imagination.”
