I actually think the Pokemon series is /n/ as fuck.
>spend most of the game walking or cycling
>ride on boats, trains
>fly on pokemon, surf on pokemon
Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald and the remakes expand on this by featuring both a road bike and a more agile mountain bike. Both bikes are necessary for exploration, since the player sometimes needs raw speed, or bunny hopping ability to bypass an obstacle.
The Pokemon games rarely show the player in a truck or car.
But I was also interested in video games where the primary theme is /n/ related. Ever played Courier Crisis for the PS1? It's like a precursor to Crazy Taxi where you ride a 90s mountain bike (with carbon wheels for some reason) around making deliveries, assaulting pedestrians and doing stunts while evading cops. It gets old quick, but it's a very /n/ game. Of course, for the foamers, there's A-Train on the PS1 as well.
I don't know of many realistic cycling games for the PC. There are the super boring cycling manager games, of course. GTA 5 has a few bikes, so you can go online and get murdered by 4 cagers in an armored car over and over until you sticky bomb them. You can always ride the trains too and escape a 6 star wanted level.

The concept art is very interesting. The Acro Bike is a dual-suspension mountain bike with front disc and the rear might be a drum brake, I'm not sure. The Mach Bike is your standard road bike, or maybe closer to a cyclocross bike than anything. Ironically, the Mach Bike (the road bike) is usually used on dirt, because only it has the ability to climb muddy slopes, and ride across floors that disintegrate. The game even times and rates your ride on the cycling road. Controlling the Mach Bike is quite difficult, and you usually collide with other cyclists, initiating a battle.

Probably Microsoft Flight Simulator X

I loved /n/ing around in GTA:SA

GTA 5 has three carbon road bikes. Unfortunately, unlike most vehicles in GTA Online they cannot be insured and they cost $10k each. There are also cruiser, mountain, and BMX bikes. If you attack the street gangs (Vagos, Grove St., Ballas) they will send someone on a BMX bike to attack you. In single player there is also a fixie bike. Bikes can be destroyed, unlike on San Andreas. The trains are rideable and you can own many different airplanes, boats, and even submarines.

You get the "Fixster" bike for doing the hipster killing rampage with Trevor. It handles like the road bikes but with less acceleration. IIRC it doesn't function like a real fixie though.

Too bad most of the bikes were shit. There were tons of BMX and sting ray bikes everywhere. When I was 12 years old playing that game for the first time I was amazed that GTA let you ride bikes. The selection of boats/planes/helicopters is still pretty good even compared with GTA 5. Vice City stories also has a BMX, it looks like a 24" though or maybe even bigger.

I was blown away the first time I found a MTB on SA
I wish my PC could handle GTA IV, let alone V

GTA V actually runs better than GTA IV on my laptop. I spent a long time getting stamina maxed out on all three characters. When you first start out with less than 100% stamina, they can only pedal fast for a while before they get out of breath and if you keep pushing them, you lose health. I got the fixie bike as Trevor but it sucks. It actually does work as a fixed gear but you can't do a full tuck like on the road bikes.
The cruiser bike isn't all that useful. It's faster than the BMX but with slower handling and can't bunny hop. It is more stable and I frequently bashed cars with it, playing online I stayed alive long enough to kill several car drivers that were trying to murder me. You do have access to better weapons on a bike versus being in a car. Cruising at a lower speed than a motorcycle or quad makes it easier to aim.

If you get on the MTB on Mt. Chiliad it teleports you to a special wooden stilt MTB course with a unique stunt ramp. There is also a 4 wheeler located near the track.
