Eat Sleep Ride Blanket: Motocross Patchwork Throw

Eat Sleep Ride Blanket shows the words EAT SLEEP RIDE, and those three words say exactly what a motocross fan lives by. They read like a simple daily plan, and anyone who has ever cleaned a dirt bike after a muddy weekend will smile at them. This throw is made for riders and the people who cheer them on.

What the design shows

The throw is built from square panels in red, black, white and gray. Dirt bike silhouettes and riders in mid-air fill several of the squares, and the bold red letters EAT, SLEEP and RIDE stack in a white block near the middle. Smaller rows of tiny racing bikes repeat across the black panels, which gives the pattern a sense of a full race day. Chevron stripes and a field of small stars fill the gray and white squares, so the eye keeps moving from one panel to the next. A large rider on a bike appears in the lower corners, leaning into a turn as if the track is just outside the frame. Every element points to the same world: the track, the bike and the rider who never really stops thinking about either.

Who it was made for

This design is for the rider who checks the weather before the forecast for the weekend and talks about jumps at dinner. It also suits the parent who drives to practice, the sibling who holds the pit board and the friend who keeps spare gloves in the truck. You will see them notice the design immediately, because the words and the bikes speak to a life they already know. Eat Sleep Ride Blanket gives those people a place to rest between sessions, wrapped in the same red and black they wear on their gear.

As a gift and every day

This throw suits a birthday, a new bike, a first trophy or a welcome-to-the-team present. It also fits a just-because gift for someone who has been up early every weekend this season. At home, it can be pulled over the legs after a long ride or spread on the couch for a post-race movie night. The fleece and sherpa styles give you a choice between smooth and soft textures, depending on what suits the room and the rider.
