A Ride In The Park
Use a Landstalker to collect checkpoints around the varied terrain of Belleville Park before the time runs out.
To start the "A Ride In The Park" checkpoint challenge, you need to get into the parked Landstalker next to the building at the North end of Belleville Park, just South of the basketball courts.
There are 12 blue ringed checkpoints which are scattered all over the park.
You can collect them in any order and the timer doesn't start until you drive through the first checkpoint, but as soon as you do, you'll have 10 seconds to reach the next one as your time counts down. Each additional checkpoint you collect will add a further 10 seconds to your timer and you must collect all 12 of them before your total time runs out. In total, you'll have 2 minutes (12 x 10 seconds) to beat the mission, but you must collect a checkpoint at least every 10 seconds to keep the timer alive.
Tips
Much like Patriot Playground and other checkpoint challenges, your aim should be to grab as many checkpoints quickly at the start of the mission to boost your total time, then drive extra carefully when attempting to get some of the more tricky checkpoints.
Start with the checkpoint straight ahead on the wooden dock, then drive into the water and carefully up the ramp to the island, approaching from the East, then reverse back down.
I usually then head up the steps of the memorial monument to grab one up there and another just next to it.
Next I move over to the West side of the park to collect one awkwardly floating between a hill and the wall. Follow the wall along to collect two more reasonably quickly and from then on you should have around 30 seconds left which is plenty of time to drive around the rest of the checkpoints which aren't too difficult.
As always, remember to be very careful when taking steep hills as the Landstalker would rather roll over than grip anything!
Carefully make your way around the rest of the park picking up the few remaining checkpoints.
As long as you manage to collect the final checkpoint before the time runs out, you'll complete the challenge, regardless of how much time you have remaining.
