Good to know Ghosts are recordings, not riders connected to your room. Practice map and reset aids are restricted during a ghost race.
Open Leaderboards →Custom stagesBuild and ride your own roadbook.
Create a route, check its notes and keep it in My stages.
Open Creator studio. Use the starter stage, start blank, or import GPX or OpenRallyGPX. Draw your route, then open World to place stone, vegetation, structures, hills and basins. Generate scenery builds patches for the chosen landscape; increasing density adds detail at the same seed. New layout tries another arrangement. Generation can be cancelled or undone. Include generated adds generated objects to the object list. Editing their position, scale or rotation preserves them during regeneration.
In the 3D preview, choose Fly. Drag to look, use WASD to move, Q to descend and E to rise. Hold Shift to move faster or use the on-screen arrows. Esc returns to Orbit. Inspect selection frames the chosen item; Reset camera returns to the start.

Good to know Keep a backup using the available export controls before changing or deleting a stage.
Open My stages →How to play
How do I control the bike?
Keyboard: W accelerates, A/D steer and S brakes (front brake in separate-brake mode). B applies the rear brake. Arrow keys move weight and lean. C is clutch, Space changes stance or charges a Trials hop, and V changes camera. Manual rally gears use Q/E, with I for engine start/stop. Esc or P pauses Training and suspends Simulation. On touch, use Gas, Brake and the steering pad; Touch setup offers Stick, Slider and Tilt. Keyboard and controller remapping are in Settings. Choose primary and alternate keys; used keys swap. Esc always remains available.
Controls & touch setup →How do I read a roadbook?
Read distance first, then the tulip and CAP. The tulip’s dot is where you enter the junction; its arrow is your exit. Printed total is cumulative; printed partial is the interval from the previous note. Your partial trip measures distance since its last reset. Read whether CAP describes an exit, average or calculated bearing. Match the actual ground and instruments to the note before committing. [ and ] browse the book; browsing does not complete a waypoint.
Open the symbol guide →Can I practise the controls and stunts?
Start with one gas, brake and turn lesson in the training yard, then learn the roadbook. After roadbook level 3, try gas control, body position, separate brakes, slides, wheelie balance and jumps. The wheelie lesson includes an optional scrape challenge. Stock loan bikes are supplied; no ownership is required.
Open playable riding school →How do I wheelie and land safely?
In Jam, hold J or Wheelie to reach or catch balance with Guard or No guard. Below 35% gas, release to float naturally; hold clutch to coast. Scroll adjusts the W throttle cap, and Settings or Pause offers adjustable opening/closing travel. For manual lifting, shift weight back and add throttle; a revved clutch release can help lift the front. Balance with small throttle changes and weight corrections. Tap B (Rear in separate touch mode) to lower the front. Too much power can loop the bike. Challenge attempts need the stated assistance level and a controlled landing.
Check bike goals →How do I jump, whip or hop?
Approach a ramp straight. In the air, W or Gas tilts back (nose up); S or any brake tilts forward (nose down). Centre weight and the bike gently aligns for landing, without changing the jump path. Hold weight for deliberate flips. Steering makes a whip; release to tuck back in. On a Trials bike, hold Space or Hop to preload and release to hop.
Check your controls →How do I recover, pause or change camera?
Esc/P or Pause opens the Training ride menu. In Simulation it suspends the ride and closes the instruments; expanded roadbook reading keeps event time running. V changes camera on keyboard; phone riders use Camera in Menu. After a crash use R or Remount now. In supported solo practice, Track resets to the route and Map gives extra help. Simulation has no training route map: recover by navigating, or request outside rescue to retire the classified stage while retaining earned navigation. Festival recovery returns you to the last cleared gate without resetting the clock.
Read navigation recovery advice →How do I unlock and customise bikes?
Garage shows each bike’s exact requirements and progress. Depending on the bike, points, lessons or a riding challenge can unlock it. Some bikes require specific manual stunts. You can track two goals from Garage or Achievements. Paint and tuning are saved for your owned bikes; a stock try-out does not grant ownership.
Open Garage →Frequently asked questions
Can I change keyboard controls while riding?
In Training, pause and open Settings. For Simulation, Suspend and save, return to the menu and open Settings before resuming from Saved rallies. Expand Keyboard bindings, select a primary or alternate key, then press its replacement. Esc cancels capture and always remains available. Changes save on this device; resume the same ride to use them.
What can I spend points on?
Garage offers bikes, permanent rider kits, helmets, boots and packs, plus three levels of engine or motor, gearing, suspension, tyre and lightweight upgrades for each bike. Preview gear free in Gear shop. Performance parts work in solo free rides, Jam, lessons and custom practice. Leaderboard stages, multiplayer and ghost races use standard performance. Free colours and ride setup stay available.
Where should I start?
Open Learn navigation. A beginner starts with the controls yard, then short roadbooks ending in a fresh mixed riding check. If you know roadbooks but are new to this simulator, choose the controls orientation and riding placement test. Guided study and drills support the core path; advanced riding is optional after level 3.
Why did a ride not earn points or complete a goal?
Recovered practice, borrowed test bikes and assisted runs have scoring restrictions. Manual challenges also check the bike, assistance setting and safe finish. Read the exact requirement in Garage or Achievements; progress may only count after a controlled landing.
Does Trials park unlock the Trials bike?
No. The quarry supplies a stock Trials 300 for practice. Your owned bikes and normal Garage selection are preserved when you leave. Check Garage for the unlock requirements.
Why can’t I see a friend’s room?
Only Public rooms appear in Live lobbies. For an Invite-only room, use its link or code. Check that both riders are connected and that the host has kept the room open. Refresh the list if a Public room has just been created.
Does the game work offline?
For a solo Simulation event, choose Download event in the briefing while connected. Its course and compatible riding code are retained with local saves; use Saved rallies to resume. New Simulation attempts also retain their runtime before riding. Other browser content depends on which assets were cached. The Windows app bundles solo content. Multiplayer, account sync and optional media may need a connection. Clearing browser data removes local downloads and saves.
Where is my progress saved?
Browser progress is stored locally for the current profile. Account and sync status are shown in Settings. The Windows app uses separate local saves. Check sync status before changing devices, and keep a save backup before clearing browser data.
How do I switch light or dark mode?
Use the theme buttons in the top bar or Settings → Display & scenery. System follows your device preference. Your selection is remembered in this browser. Riding instruments keep their high-contrast dark surfaces.
Can I see the first-time guides again?
Yes. Open Help & FAQ from the top bar or Home. Every mode guide remains here after you dismiss it. You can also show the first-time tips again using the button below.
The game is slow or controls feel awkward. What should I change?
Open Settings to lower graphics quality and tune your controls. On a phone, try landscape, then choose Stick, Slider or Tilt in Touch setup. Close other demanding tabs. Pause before changing your riding setup.
