The Map
Shows your position and direction in the world. Other networked VR Bikes
show up as large squares, and computer-generated bikes are small squares.
Gears
There are 15 gears, arranged like on a 15-speed mountain bike. In 15th gear
on level ground, you can reach over 30 mph with a fast cadence.
Races
Race against three computer-generated cyclists, colored red, blue, and purple,
in addition to any networked bikes that are riding with you. The Short Race
is about six tenths of a mile long, with one water jump. The Long Race is
4.5 miles long. It's quite difficult to beat the red bike; you must make
an all-out sprint for the last tenth of a mile to have a chance.
Mountain Bike Trail
The longest and most difficult course, 5 miles of hills and twisting trails.
Flower Tour
An easy course for warm-up or low-intensity exercise.
SuperStuff Pit
Located about a quarter mile northeast of the starting point, this magenta-colored
pit has artificially high gravity and low friction. Ride into it and see
what happens!
Hills
Hills feel just as they should -- they are hard to pedal up and easy to
pedal down. For the fastest performance over the courses, you should maintain
your effort up hills, reduce gears if necessary, then increase your gear
going downhill.
