Did you want to find out about the game's various updates and significant events over the years? Ever thought about all the amazing Community Collabs that have occurred? Do you want to discover all the editors and tools to enhance your trackmaking and game experience? Have you ever wondered about the history of other Free Rider games?

    Well, you've certainly come to the right place!

    I have to admit this is helpful instead of scrolling through the threads and searching stuff up every time. :thumbsup:

    I've finished adding every Free Rider website and forum I am aware of. It is extremely hard to track these down due to the websites being closed or Flash shutting down. Some of them are accessible on Wayback Machine so you can see what they used to look like, but some Wayback Machine links (for Free Rider 1 and 2) allow you to play the game there. Those Free Rider veterans out there, please tell me if I missed a significant forum or website I am unaware of.

    I am almost finished making a seperate thread about a brief history of every free rider game where I will move all the links from the game website, forums, social media and discord spoiler in this thread to the other thread. Does anyone old player here know when Black Hat Rider was released? Based on research, it seems to be January or February 2013 but I don’t know the exact date. Can anyone help me here and maybe give a bit more info about the game?

    Quick update, all the forums and threads for FRHD Teams added. Each category is colour-coded based on what it concerns. Red = contests, blue = trackmaking/ghosting, and everything else is a different colour to be easily distinguished.

    Added freerider.app, condensed 90% of the hyperlinks, added more old community collabs (including recent 2024 wall of fame) and helpful threads. Also slightly rearranged trackmaking threads. Can this thread be pinned already please lol.
