I am NOT responsible for your lost time

If you play this game where the little Japanese girl rams her bike into the guy and sends him flying, do not blame me when you come out of the fog an hour later, trying to eke just a few more meters out of the poor guy's headlong flight.

The rules are in Japanese, but it's pretty easy to figure out. Stop the angle-of-attack meter by clicking and holding your mouse button. This starts the power meter going--release the button when the meter is full. While your guy is flying through the air, you will note the word "AERIAL" alternating between red, gray and blue. When it is red, you can click the mouse to bump the guy with the bike, sending him flying farther. (You can do this three times.) When it is blue, you send the guy careening downwards. (This power is unlimited, but depends on the blue meter building up.)

Notice also the SPECIAL icon strip. If you hit a character of the same color as the icon highlighted in the strip, you get a chance at a special--click the button as soon as the words "SPECIAL - press!" appear on-screen. You get a big power boost.

In addition, some of the characters on the way grant boosts, some of them block the others' power, and one of them stops the game.

So far, my record is 5458.58 meters.
