RIDER ===== YOUR COUNTRY DEPENDS ON YOU! PARACHUTE INTO ENEMY TERRITORY AND RIDE THE MINED ROADS by Roy Poole and Terry Murray Your country depends on you! You are an agent from MI5. Your mission - to parachute into enemy territory, collect a motorbike provided by the Resistance and check out their mined roads prior to your country's invasion. A successful mission will mean promotion in rank up to the coveted 007. A failed mission will result in death! Having collected your bike you must weave your way down the enemie's mined roads. Fortunately they have not yet removed their markers showing the safe path. Stray from this path at your peril! Instructions Your mission is split into two stages: Stage 1: Parachute yourself onto one of the moving motorbikes (note the points value is changing throughout your drop). To do this, use keys - 1 = left; 2 = right; H = hold; S = restart. Stage 2: Manoeuvre your bike through the mined enemy territory. Use keys - 1 = left; 2 = right; H = hold; S = restart; \ 9 = go faster; O = go slower. SPY LEVELS: Speed will vary from slow on rank 001 to very fast on rank 007. More mines are active on the higher levels, then on the lower levels. The number progressively increases with your status. The active mines are never in the same position on each 'ride'.
