Introduction

RIDE is a motorcycle experience in video game form brought to you by Milestone, the devs best known for their yearly iteration of the MotoGP games. Other than the MotoGP series, this game brings you customization of your bikes and rider and the game features street tracks next to a handful of real life tracks. Also, instead of just racing, there’s various different events such as drag races and head to head challenges. Graphically, the game doesn’t really stand out, but the average bike lover will definitely get fun and enjoyment out of this game.

Roadmap

Step 1 – World Tour and Elite Trophies
The World Tour in this game is the career mode and your aim is to rank up to the #1 position of the rankings. By just starting the world tour, you will earn your first trophy: This is Ride!. Set the difficulty (you can play on easy as there are no difficulty related trophies) and choose your first bike to start racing. There is no strict order in which you’re supposed to play the events on the tour, so feel free to buy other bikes to be able to race in other events at any given time. Right before you start the first race, enter the bike settings menu for the Men at work trophy and during your first race, press and select Free Camera for another easy trophy. There is no need to get a gold medal on each event, but you will need to get one gold medal on each type of event. Obviously, you will rise the world rankings way faster and earn more money if you do get gold on the events though. Try not to spend too much money on upgrades and save up as much money as possible to lessen the grind on the Moneybags and The Collector trophies later on. You should be able to win most races with no upgrades or just a few anyway. Also, check the requirements for racing the Elite Trophies and as soon as you're eligible for one; finish that race first as it will contribute greatly towards your ranking and credits. You will have to get a gold medal on all of these Elite Trophies and finishing these will net you both the Halfway and The world is yours trophies.

Step 2 – Get 50 bikes in your garage
When you reach the #1 spot on the rankings in World Tour, you will likely have around 15 to 20 bikes in your garage. There is a trophy however for having 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 50 bikes in your garage. Keep doing races and other events to gain enough money to buy this amount of bikes. Keep in mind that you can actually keep buying the same bike over and over until you reach 50, so if you want to do this in the fastest possible manner, you’ll be best off by just buying the cheapest bike over and over. Do make sure that you buy at least one bike of every available brand first though. If you haven’t obtained the Moneybags trophy for having 100,000 credits during the World Tour, then you should get this out of the way in this step too, since this trophy is not cumulative and requires you to own the full amount at one point.

Step 3 – Miscellaneous
Go to your rider menu and switch your rider gear for the Swag! trophy. Next, in the same menu, change the title of your rider for the The Aristocrat trophy. Start up a time trial race from the main menu and find a track with a long straight. Before you start, make sure in your settings that the wheelie control function is set to off. Now on the long straight, pull while accelerating to pull off a wheelie and moderate the throttle to keep control. If you keep the wheelie going for 8 seconds, you will gain the Monocycle trophy. Now build up some speed with your bike and make a full brake with for the For the fans trophies. Use a rewind via the button to watch a replay for They used to call me McFly trophy and then complete a valid lap for the A ghost has appeared trophy.

Step 4 – Online
Lastly, you will get the online trophies out of the way. First, go to your rider menu and add someone from your friend list as your team mate. Now, go to the online part and get the championship out of the way first, because these will count towards the 20 races you will have to race in total. After you completed the championship (which can be as short as 2 races), just race 20 races and you’ll be done. Keep in mind though that a race only counts if you complete the race. If you get a DNF after the timer runs out, it won’t count. To easily get the online trophies out of the way, you can boost these with a partner. If you want to find a boosting partner, please use the boosting thread found HERE.

As always, earn every other trophy in the game for this one. Congratulations!
Connection

Keep in mind that a race only counts if you complete the race. If you get a DNF after the timer runs out it, won’t count.

Friends will be friends

Enroll one of your friends in the team
From your rider menu you can choose who your team mate is for team races in the World Tour. You can choose from a few AI players, but this trophy will require you to pick a team mate from your friend list. If you don’t have someone on your list who’s playing this game and you want to find a boosting partner, please use the boosting thread found HERE.
Tag Team

Win a gold medal in a Team Race event on the World Tour
Find a team race event in World Tour mode and race with a team mate. You will gather points based on your position and the cumulative points of you and your team mate will determine the result. By default, you will have a very weak AI team mate, so it is wise to go for this trophy when you have better AI available or by adding someone from your friends list. You will unlock new AI team mates by completing the Elite Challenge. For more information on those, see the The world is yours trophy.
Bite my dust!

Win a gold medal in a Drag Race event on the World Tour
Probably the easiest events in the game. You won’t even have to steer to complete the race as it’s just one long straight, but you will have to manually shift the gears up by pressing . If you’re having difficulties winning the drag race, try to upgrade your bike or buy a faster bike altogether.
Against the clock

Win a gold medal in a Time Attack event on the World Tour
For this trophy, you will have 3 rounds to achieve a certain time on a certain track. The gold times aren’t too challenging, and if you’re using an upgraded bike, you will have no troubles getting a gold medal.
Give way!

Win a gold medal in a Track Day event on the World Tour
In a track day event, you’ll have a set amount of time to overtake as many other riders as you can. Every time you overtake another rider, you will have 3 seconds added to that time. The number of riders you’ll have to overtake for a gold medal is very reasonable, so this shouldn’t prove too difficult.
Durable

Win a gold medal in an Endurance event on the World Tour
An endurance event is the same as a single race except you will have to complete 8 instead of 3 laps. Win the race to obtain this trophy. Note that endurance events are only found in the “Pro Circuit” events.

It's better with friends

Complete 20 online races
(1)
Go to online in the main menu and complete 20 races. This trophy can be done both in public and private games and races in championships count for this as well. If you want to check your progress towards this trophy you can see the number of completed online races you've done by going to "My Rider" in the main menu and then "Titles". Scroll down to titles #78 and #79, these are for completing 25 and 50 online races respectively and will show how much you've progressed.

Note: Although I haven't experienced any issues on both the PS3 and PS4 version of the game myself, some people have reported that they needed to complete more than 20 races to obtain this trophy. It's currently unknown as to why the game doesn't count some races, but just keep at it and continue checking your progress and you'll eventually get there.
