LOCATION DISCOVERY: THE BIKE SHOP

the basics

A group of brave, slightly superheroish explorers have discovered a new shop: one that specializes in helping you out when you just gotta go fast. It's the bike shop!

The description of this location is detailed below, and it has already been added to the map and the settings page.

If you have any questions, please let us know in the comments!

the details

A small building filled with dusty windows and, on one side, an enormous garage door stands not too far from the post office. The building's interior is just one room and a bit of a mess, with various tools and parts scattered over the shelves and floor, all of it covered in a thick layer of dust and cobwebs. Papers are scattered on the floor, but they're not so interesting. The content ranges, including scraps of a shop ledger, brochures for local mountain biking trails, guides to proper motorbike upkeep, and hobby magazines relating to bikes, mechanics, and... taxidermy and pin collecting? Sure.

Bicycles, mostly in functional condition, line the walls of the shop. There are plenty of supplies to repair and upgrade them, too, should your character get a hankering to get their hands all greasy. On the other side, near the garage, there are a few motorbikes. They run on electricity, and they're ready for use so long as they've been given an opportunity to charge!

Characters may freely borrow bicycles and motorbikes from the bike shop! You don't need to report the borrowing anywhere (unless your character engages in any property damage), and you're welcome to assume your character can find functional bikes at all times. Bikes of any kind may only be ridden around the explored parts of town, though. These little vehicles won't be much help off the beaten path.

> brochures for local mountain biking trails

Don't mind me replying to this old post here, but question: do any of those brochures include trail maps or other location maps that show Beacon's distinctive peninsula shape, or provide other clues about their immediate surroundings that could be relevant, such as nearby roads or towns in the past?

(And if this is better off posted to the explores, let me know!)

[inthenightmods]

They sure do! :)

The maps are very clearly from Beacon of the past and they're all about hiking trails as opposed to neat structures around town, so Rosinante won't be able to glean much of use from them, but...

One trail map shows a trail along the northern coast of Beacon, west of the museum. There's a note that Downtown Beacon is a great place to spend a night on the town!

Excellent, he's gonna keep that one for later when everyone's limbs haven't just fallen off.

Unfortunately, most people still have their limbs intact, as that is the game's collective hard limit, it seems. 👀🔪🔪🔪

But smart move, Rosi!
