New Genisis Bay Riding Sim

By Bixyl Shuftan

 

For those looking for a long racetack with a lot of scenery, there's one over the Kinder der Nacht sim you'll want to check out. Called the Kinder der Nacht New Genisis Bay Riding Sim, this racetrack was really, really, really long. It was the biggest I'd ever seen, and many times longer than any previous one I'd ever gone through.

 

Charlee and I found it by accident looking for a place to ride our new horses. Heading to Kinder der Nacht (180/199/992). It started off in an urban setting, with the beginning of a track, going up. The place would have the following description: "25 tracks, 2 Speed tracks, hour long ride. Cars welcome when bikes not present, Horse rezzers. Open to everyone and MC neutral. Bike vendors for test drives." There was also a red warning sign that this was not the place to settle disputes and to take any problems elsewhere.

 

 

We saddled up on a couple horses, and went up on roads and bridges, and passing urban buildings, that looked like they'd seen better days.

After a while, we'd gotten onto another section of track, going down a dusty road in some dry terrain.

Then on a cobblestone road where the vegetation was more lush and there weer a few waterfalls.

Then a roadside rest area next to some forest, one with a lot of flags.

There was a memorial to someone.

Going up further, the scenery began to get a little surreal, like something out of a painter's imagination.

Then a wooden road through what looked like some swampland.

Then the road was asphalt again, and things turned wintry.

A glance at some of the twists and turns.

Then we went through a place that looked musical.

It wasn't just the rubber hitting the road, but the rubber was the road.

Panning out, there seemed to be no end to these track sections. 

Then the scenery changed to the road looking like made from the wood of a weathered ocean pier, complete with stormy skies.

Then passing through forest, with a rideable horse.

Further confirmation the place was intended for more than just cars and motorbikes.

One of the more interesting levels was the pirate island one.

Yo ho ho!

We never did go searching for the hidden treasure.

The next section of track had an Irish feel to it.

With plenty of farmland.

The next part looked out of this world.

The track section next, well, "everything was just ducky."

And more normal in the next one.

Then things looked a bit Viking.

 

 Then a trip to a desert road.

Things were looking a bit "down under."

Then back in forest.

This section of track reminded me of this year's Relay theme.

Every so often, there was a stop with a sign with a saying.

The next section had a Japanese look to it.

Back to a meadow.

 

 We were joined by a friend, and at one point took a short break at a rest stop. 

Then the track turned into asphalt again.

We'd finally reached the end of the road.

It was here our journey finally ended.

Panning out, with the viewer at 1064 meters, it could only show the very top of this long, long track.

Riding at slow speed, it had taken Charlee and I hours over a few days to make our way to the top, just relaxing and enjoying the scenery. By car or motorbike, it would probably take about an hour as the maker claims. 

It's my impression one track can cost quite a bunch of Linden dollars. So the owner, or owners, spent quite a lot of cash on this massive track. Even if you're not a racing fan, the scenery in itself is worth a casual drive, or ride, through.
