also called octocyclists, for more or less obvious reasons.

the story behind this guys, is a pictures of a couple of guys carrying a propane cylander as part of rescue efforts related to recent extreme weather even in south africa. in the thubnail they and the cylander they were carrying on their sholders looked well kind of like these so i just had this in my mind to make.

i think they're mostly organic living creature, but so completely adopted to their wheels that they've evolved as a species to encorporate them into their form.
