01 • First completion, step by step

First completion, step by step

  1. 01

    Enter the marker on foot

    ACTION
    Approach the current marker and launch; do not try to provide your own bicycle.
    TIP
    Inspect the first checkpoints before confirming launch.
    RISK / FAILURE CONDITION
    Searching for an Inductor purchase creates an unnecessary barrier.
    HOW TO RECOVER THE RUN
    Return to the start zone on foot—the bicycle will be supplied.
  2. 02

    Check the bicycle and sprint

    ACTION
    Before a difficult segment confirm the pedalling, steering and bicycle control inputs for climbs and landings.
    TIP
    Preserve momentum and a straight line for longer climbs.
    RISK / FAILURE CONDITION
    A sharp turn on a kerb can throw the rider and consume the par-time margin.
    HOW TO RECOVER THE RUN
    Remount and finish as reconnaissance; the next day provides another full run after completion.
  3. 03

    Follow the ordered route

    ACTION
    Register checkpoints in the displayed order and look one gate ahead.
    TIP
    Set the bicycle up early for narrow passages and stairs.
    RISK / FAILURE CONDITION
    Missing one checkpoint stops progress even after reaching later ones.
    HOW TO RECOVER THE RUN
    Return to the missed gate immediately; continuing will not repair the order.
  4. 04

    Maintain par-time pace

    ACTION
    Accelerate on straights and choose a clean entry before technical sections.
    TIP
    On a bicycle, flow preserves more time than a risky jump over an obstacle.
    RISK / FAILURE CONDITION
    A fall in the final sector can miss the limit.
    HOW TO RECOVER THE RUN
    Finish, remember the obstacle and correct it on the next available day rather than guessing a reset hour.
  5. 05

    Collect the full result

    ACTION
    Cross the finish before par time and wait for the $51,000–54,000 and 1,200–1,800 RP settlement.
    TIP
    Keep the GTA$1,000–4,000 + 200–800 RP time-tier base separate from the GTA$50,000 + 1,000 RP par-time bonus.
    RISK / FAILURE CONDITION
    After completion the activity does not provide an immediate second full loop.
    HOW TO RECOVER THE RUN
    Return the next day and do not assign an unverified exact reset hour.

04 • Reward and economic status

$51,000–54,000 • 1,200–1,800 RP for par time
