I'm sorry I have no fantastic explanation about this, or no meaning to see other than what others pointed out , but I am here to say this is wonderful. So brilliant, so magnificent! I must agree with people like *inziladun and ~the-vickie , for it does seem meaningful, however, I am not to interpret that much, right? Great job. It's so dysfunctional, it's comical. 
thats me

~the-vickie offered a very interesting analysis, I think that is a very plausible interpretation. Another thing I see here is that all of these animals (very cute by the way, but still realistic) seem to be headed toward that same spot where the guy is.. As if this stump on the ground is the thing that can 'trigger' enlightenment.
And perhaps these animals are not actually cats, dogs, etc., but representations of all other humans; everybody is groping their way towards this same place, that same goal. But this person on a bike is the individual, and the way the word 'I' is circled like that I think that this theme of individual meaning versus a sort of consensus of meaning of life might be prevalent here.
And as always, I love your style immensely. This whole hip-hop atmosphere that your drawing and lineart has is so appealing, and it's also easy to look at. And the aforementioned theme of individuality is brought up again because the kid on the bike is the only really properly outlined portion. And these animals having no clearly defined outlines gives thme a sense of speed, it truly looks like they're running.
And as ~IncB pointed out, the perspective you've chosen here is just spectacular; it's very rare indeed to see anything drawn from this angle, and here is is such a perfect idea, because the kid is looking upwards and that would in part imply that whatever he is looking at is right next to 'us', or where the perspective is from. His expression is also classic, really well defined. It's like he's confused, alarmed, inquisitive and innocent all at once. 
Really great work; I don't know how much thought you really put into the themes and things here, but it's all a very, very insightful bundle of meanings. Great job.

thats deep, very very deep..
I get it tho, i think..it's kinda like, right here, right now. When you fall off your bicycle, thats it. And thats life, right? because, you're alive, right now, and all that happens, is right now. And the meaning of it? is what you make of it, i guess.
the animals are a great touch, it's kinda like, all things, good natured, bad natured, its gathering around you, the tension builds up, but when you stop up, look around, all is gone. because your imagination is stronger than your reality, right there and then.
I really am looking foreward to see this developing..it really flipped a lighswitch in my head. Partly because i recognize the way of writing, and my english teacher hates it, because i dont explain myself clearly enough. i dont get it, why should life be so clearly outwritten ?

I have to ask, what size paper do you do your drawings on? Also, what sort of pencils/pacers do you use?
P.S. So the meaning of like is "Don't fall off your bike or the Neighbourhood pets will get you!?"

I love everything about this. the emphasis on the guy on the bike with the darker lines, and the maddness around him. It's just a metaphor almost for life Great work!

That's a spectacular image!
Meaning of life? Doesn't seem to have much to do with the piccy.
I figure the meaning of life is to view humanity as a whole and do your part in contributing to the universe's self awareness.
Is the kid in for a horrid rending, or a mass licking?
Those pups seem to cute to be nasty..save for that little bastard tailgating.

Gleep! I forgot to actually comment on the picture! Fantastic use of perspective, I don't remember seeing many drawings that actually played with angles, so this stands out. Awesome expression too! Finally, the focus is well worked...excellent picture everywhere!
