How is it that some bikes appear to bounce up and down while standing still in the loading area. It is these same bikes that never seem to crash when playing online. It is annoying. I see them crash 10 times and they never loose any ground, but if I touch them I go down. WHats up....

That's pretty vague sir. Could very well be a connection/latency issue and what you're seeing is just a lack of proper sync.

i see this sometimes as well, people in front of me will crash through the blocks and go wreck off of the track and flash back on the track way ahead and keep riding fine.. it's annoying it always seems to be one person...

The gamer tag  GJENKO  does this all the time, endless flaws in the riding bouncing all over the place never crashing.   That  ID gets alot of holeshots but i killed him last night, and just ignored all the bouncing and expected it, wherein i changed my lines in anticipation. Good Luck

Yeah, I see this alot, and they always win or get second. I think its bull**** programers with back door passwords or cheat codes. They also seem to clear jumps that was impossible to do because they didnt have enough speed but they still clear it and I cant. I call these clowns " COWARDS ". I like the game play and the tracks and bikes and the online challenge but why do bull**** like this? To make themselves feel like a winner by cheating. LMAO. .Never fails tho. Every game has these COWARDS. I play under the name DaHawaiian. I finished 96% of the game straight up. I didnt complete the freeride sections. I 'd like to set up where only real settings and real players can compete without bullshyt . ALOHA!!!

They aren't cheating... They're lagging. Their internet connection has a bad connection so the server receives their data later than everyone else. So when they drive off the track instead of turning, its because the server lost some data and their bike continues to go straight and then the  server receives data from their connection again and shows their actual place and turns out they did take the corner making them seem lke they jump back in front of you, just online it didn't sync up with what you were seeing. They were really in front the whole time. Lagging also causes the bouncing/hopping in the loading arena. When I see these players, I try to send them a message and tell/ask them to leave the room. It's rude, but I've noticed when players with lagging connection are in the room, the race sometimes takes forever to start, or half the racers join the race late.
