Dirt Slide things...

[Achamo]

is there any way to get up the dirt slide things... like the one in the desert area...

Use the fast bike and you'll do fine... ;-)

[Achamo]

thankz

[dan-rushton]

With the old bike, I could get up there...but now with the fast bike, it won't let me. Do you have to hop on the bike to get up there now?

i actually dont know which bike is which. i just tried both, and one worked, so i used that...

[dan-rushton]

But I thought the fast bike replaced the original bike...

[Tango]

Probably the term "fast bike" is wrong. There's the normal bike and the "trick bike".... Use the normal one...

[Achamo]

actually there is no "normal" bike... there is slow bike (which can do the wheelie trick) and there is the fast bike (which can just go fast)... there really is no "normal" bike because u can use both, as long as you just go back to the bike dude and ask to change

[darkside]

does anyone know what happens after you beat that green haired guy (the one you helped catch rarutosu with at the start of the game?) does he have any significance on the story??

Actually, I think all you need is the Go Go Goggles. I got into the desert fine without the bike...

[dan-rushton]

Having got the second bike...it looks like I can no longer use the orignal bike..is this normal?

[Achamo]

Just go back to bike shop and you can trade it back in.

I think all you need is a fast start, then you can go back up. You can't go up the dirt slide things if you are right under it, you have to be a few spaces back.

hehe, that is the challenge w/ the secret tower cuz you ahve to keep up your speed and make turns at same time!! -.-sigh... that one took me a while
