Dustrider

Dustrider is a 3D motorbike driving game that runs in your browser. You ride from behind the rider along a wide desert road, with a speed dial in km/h and a nitro bar in the corner. There are no scores or rivals, just free riding.

3. Use Space for the handbrake and C to change the camera view.
4. Change gear by hand with Page Up and Page Down.

What you see on screen

• Top right: a dial with your speed in km/h and the current gear, with a nitro bar below it.
• Left: the controls panel and the three bike buttons.
• Scenery: a desert road, an overpass, dry trees, open sand and a fence in the distance.

Tips

• Hold the up arrow and the Racer reached 126 km/h after nine seconds in our two runs, so you cover the road quickly.
• Steer early. In five of our six runs holding the up arrow ended against the boundary fence within 15 seconds.
• Try all three bikes; they read 119 to 128 km/h at nine seconds.
• Read our motorbike game tips for the numbers behind these tips.
