Yes, first the map was neutral without hints and shows only the situation. The maps of the flags and balloons was hidden in links. Now it' direct visible in the pictures.

How can we now solve the problem showing an empty map in which people can mark the flags found self?

Sure I can take my visible flag and balloon pictures back into links, but not so the pictures of other persons.

Threads tend to evolve, but it is in compliance with the Spoiler Alert on the beginning. Is it ok with you , Methusalem? You started the thread. Or we could split phunguy's map off into another spoiler thread of it's own.

If phunguy123 change the {image} and {/image} to {url} and {/url} in his posting the problem would now solved. But it's his choice.

Thanks for the welcome, we LOVE the Island Cycling and miss it if we aren't on it for at least an hour each day. We got through the courses needed to get to the free-cycle, but will admit a cheat on the balloon find !!! Now I want a new bike....do you need to light up the required tiles in free-cycling after you have popped all of the balloons and within the 30 minute time limit?

No. You can just light up the squares at your convenience. The squares remain lit after you hit them once.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I have such a terrible sense of direction, I'd never find my way back to the fun places. The little map in the instruction booklet didn't help much, so thanks for the time you put into creating your maps.

Sorry my fault, you don't get stars for popping the balloons on the "Free Course".
Stars you getting only if you go at least enough kilometres. (How many you would need I really don't know any more)

If you use "death plummet" tricks, the numbered balloons map didn't help. To many people found to many ways that can't go by others so please try your own way.

I guess if you are trying for kilometers you wouldn't want to use plummets. You'd make more distance by zooming down the downhill roads for as long as possible. So you might want to work up a route based on a lot of downhill riding. Has anyone done that?

Yes - start at the highest point above the castle, and follow the road then tunnel to bottom of waterfall. Then onto to the dirt road, going counter-clockwise. To the black top , and stay on this until you go through the archway after the ruins - then follow the dirt path until you complete the loop. Keep doing that loop until you fall off the WiiFit exhausted, or your time is up, whichever comes first. It's possible to maintain the speed stripes the whole time on this route.

Sounds like fun. Maybe that is the route some of y'all have been taking on your distance challenge.
