    Speed Bikes on Island Tracks

    Is it possible to even complete them all with the Bronco? I just 14-faulted Rotten Railway, the spinning wheel was no picnic. I thought it was kind of a fun challenge though. I have a feeling some are impossible. Alpha Street comes to mind.

    I think if they are possible they should be added to showdowns. It would be equal suckitude for both players but fun just the same. Plus I really just want to use the Phantom on Melancholy Temple.

    EDIT: My results:

    Rotten Railway: Possible
    Melancholy Temple: Impossible
    Alpha Street: Possible
    Daredevil Paradise: Possible
    Fault Village: Possible
    Refinery Abyss: Possible

    Someone prove me wrong on Melancholy!

    Melancholy Temple may actually be impossible with the Bronco because of that steep climb near the end. The bike's grip isn't enough to keep a steady enough speed on landing.
    Also, I am trying to platinum the Island with Donkey so I am done with all of tier 1, and I am only missing one track, Melancholy Temple. I would agree that it isn't fun at parts, but it's satisfying when you're finally done.

    Yeah, put Melancholy on the impossible list. That beginning is possible but it took me like 50 tries, but the ramp at the end isn't, at least with the Bronco. I can see the Phantom doing it for sure, maybe the 'rauder. The rest was easy and fun though. I'll try the other ones later.

    I have not found a way to do Daredevil Paradise with the Bronco. It's the first to last checkpoint ( the steep hill climb ) where I can't get furhter. I know it's possible, but I can not manage to get enough speed to get up the hill.

    Just 39-faulted Alpha Street. Possible! I will update the OP.

    EDIT:

    I totally just did it, the beginning was rather easy. The only tough part for me on this one was the last part right before the final checkpoint. Took a bit of innovation. I had 16 faults, 14 of them were there.

    EDIT2: Just did the last 2, both possible. I 7-faulted Fault Village, but that one is the easiest (it was first try). I actually 3-faulted Refinery Abyss first try as well, so pretty easy. Good stuff.

    Best I could do on melancholy was front tire about half way up the completely vertical last face of the rock.

    Yeah, not getting any closer than this...



    Was fun though. I might try the other ones with 0 faults.

    I tried it too and was only able to get to the long steep climb near the end. You can get like 95% up the hill (just like cazgal's pic) until it goes in a negative angle then your bike starts to drop.

    Haven't been able to get passed that point where other people are getting stuck either. The engine block gets in the way when you make your way back horizontal. I had one attempt where it was in a slightly closer position but again got stuck. Ran out of time and had 91 faults at that point.
