When you think the time is right press fire to drop onto the cycle. If you hit an obstruction you will lose 100 points. Task Two: Log jumping. Avoid the oncoming logs by bunny-hopping them or driving your bike around them. A bunny hop can be achieved by pressing fire and up (a wheelie), then pressing fire and down in quick succession. As in the hang-glider drop, if you hit an obstruction you will will lose 100 points and crash. Task Three: Fire-hoop jumping. When a hoop of fire comes near enough, jump through it by pressing fire. You must land back on the bike afterwards, though. The height of the jump depends on how fast the bike travels when you leave it. Task Four: Lorry catching. Weave in and out of the obstacles and wait for the truck to lower a ramp; wheelie up onto it to complete the level. Task Five: Helicopter hanging. You must jump from the bike and grab onto the hanger which is suspended from the 'copter. Jump by pressing fire, and as before, the height you jump is dependent on the speed of the bike when you leave it. If the chopper is within range when you jump, you automatically grab the hanger.
