Kirby Air Riders: How to unlock all secret and retro courses for Air Ride and Top Ride

Kirby Air Riders features 18 circuits in total for the main mode, Air Ride, the races between six players. The other modes like Top Ride, Urban Trials, and City Trials have different circuits/stadiums, but the main one has nine circuits... plus the nine circuits from the original 2003 GameCube game, of course, remastered.

Initially, however, you only have eight new tracks. You have to play to unlock the remaining ten secret circuits. All of them are unlocked via the Checklist, the rewards that unlock new squares in the mosaic.

How to unlock the secret course in Top Ride mode

The Top ride mode, with the top-down view, also has nine stages, all of them new. This mode doesn't have retro tracks, so eight are unlocked from the start.
