'''Space Riders''' is a widebody [[PhysicalPinballTables arcade pinball game]] released in 1978 by Creator/{{Atari}}. It was designed by Gary Slater and illustrated by George Opperman and Gjalt Vanderwyk.
The game challenges players to rack up a high score in the context of a futuristic motorcycle race. As the Space Rider, players can roll over the various Star targets to increase the value of the drop targets, use the drop targets to raise the value of the bumpers and spinners, then spell BIKE and CITY to multiply the bonuses. Hit all three drop targets for a chance at the extra ball, then hit the captive balls behind them for a Special -- but make sure the passenger on your bike doesn't lose her grip.
''Space Riders'' tends to draw mixed opinions from pinball players. Some find it a fun game with lots of scoring options and a challenging hunt for the Special bonus, while others find it too slow and easy for expert players. Everyone agrees, however, that the lack of any mid-level flippers keeps most of the action in the bottom half of the table, and the eye-catching artwork is the highlight of the game.

* CoolBike: The Space Rider's bike, complete with a tapered nosecone, tailfins, and rocket thrusters.
* CoolHelmet: The protagonist is wearing a futuristic inverted metal bowl helmet.
* HoodOrnamentHottie: The unidentified passenger on the Rider's bike.
* MixAndMatch: Advertising materials promoted ''Space Riders'' as [-motorcross-] + [-THE FUTURE!-]
* NoPlotNoProblem
* SingleUseShield: The three captive balls on the playfield are shielded by dropdown targets that disappear after one hit.
* SpaceClothes: Everyone wears full-body unicolored jumpsuits.
