Let’s get you a ride





5,000 Ape Rides made to fit any Ape NFT collection and bring Apes
together. Enhanced with full body artwork, Your Ape NFT is your entry ticket to
Ape Rides no matter what tribe it belongs to. At launch the first
100,000 Apes from 10 of the leading collections are ready to hop straight on to
any Ape Ride. Ape + Ride = Ape Rider. Are you ready?

Current compatible collection







This is Ape Rides



5,000 Rides

The core of Ape Rides are 5,000 hand-drawn Ape Rides NFTs, made from 50
different types of vehicles or modes of transportation, enriched with unique
combinations of traits. Each ride will also have non-visible properties,
manifested in the metadata – think of it like a metaverse version of Trading
Card Games which will allow a gamified ecosystem, competitions, Apes teaming up
across tribes, and much more. Rides will be minted in a random order, reveal
will happen after mint.




170k+ Apes

Ape Rides are designed for an unlimited number of NFT collections, and already
at launch every Ape from the first eight tribes will be eligible. It also means
that all bodies for these 170,000 Apes have already been hand-drawn, so we can
focus on further growth right after mint. We don’t alter your original Ape NFT
profile picture, nor do we change its background. We meticulously complete the
body for it, all furs, clothes, laser or beams, in multiple positions.



800 MILLION+ Combinations



Your Ape NFT + your Ape Rides NFT = your Ape Rider NFT. 800 Million combinations
will be possible from day one, with lots more to come. 

All you need is an Ape Ride and an Ape from any of the eligible collections in
one wallet, and we have an easy process for you to put your Ape on your Ride
without exposing your assets to any risk. Select an Ape, select a Ride, and
within seconds, you will see the result. And if you like it, you can mint that
very image as a new NFT.




One Jungle

The Jungle is home to every Ape. Ape Rides are here to create a space where Apes
can engage, team up, compete, and socialize with Apes from different tribes, in
one ecosystem, on Rides that fit their individual personality. Phase 1 is
complete with the launch of Ape Rides NFT minting, and Phase 2 is already mapped
out to help grow the Jungle at speed.



Artwork

A little appetizer, visualizing the basics of how it works. There are around
499,999,993 more possible combinations.




Your Ape

Your original Ape NFT image. You love it, we love it. Which is why we are not
touching it.



Your Ride

The genuine Ape Rides NFT – hand-drawn in a 3k x 3x canvas. There are 5,000 of
these.



Your new NFT

With an Ape and an Ape Ride, you can mint your new Ape Rider NFT.




















HOW IT WORKS

We have prepared two ways to create and mint your new Ape Rider NFT, both using
our Garage Dapp:
1) Standard mint which is the quickest process
2) Degen wallet mint which does not require to connect your Ape-holding wallet

1) Standard mint

Do the transaction with your wallet which holds both the Ape Rides NFT and the
Ape NFT. Connect to our Garage Dapp, and it will guide you through the process.



2) Degen wallet mint

Do the transaction with your wallet which holds the Ape Rides NFT, and choose an
Ape NFT from any other wallet. You will be prompted to enter the wallet address
that holds your Ape NFT, and it will mint the Ape Rider into that wallet. To
verify that you own the Ape-holding wallet, the Dapp will ask you to send 0 ETH
from that wallet to the wallet that you are using for the transaction.




Roadmap

We have defined three phases for the development of Ape Rides, starting with the
basics and building a scalable project for the long term growth of the Ape Rides
ecosystem:

PHASE 1: LAUNCH OF APE RIDES

The primary goal of Phase 1 is to go live with something never seen before in
the NFT space, technically or at this scale.To do this we are creating 5,000
unique Ape Rides and hand drawing the bodies of 80,000 apes from the top ape
collections to make them all accessible from day 1, Mint is planned for early Q3
2022.

PHASE 2: GETTING UP TO SPEED

After the completed mint of Ape Rides, we move to Phase 2. The goal of Phase 2
is to add more NFT collections and make Ape Rides accessible to over 170,000
Apes, and also deliver unique experiences by capturing early quick wins with
personalization features. We aim to complete Phase 2 a couple of months after
completion of Phase 1.

Adding the next 3 Collections

80,000 Apes are just the beginning. Plenty of Apes want to have access to Ape
Rides and cruise the Jungle. We are adding the next 3 collections in Phase 2.
Update: Two new collections have been included already pre mint making us hit
almost 100,000 apes: PAYC and LAYC. We’re ahead of the roadmap. And 7 more added
since mint. We are now at a total of 170,000 PFPs compatible in full body with
all 5,000 rides.

Customizing your Ape Ride Banner

Add flavor to your social media banner with custom sceneries, your Twitter
handle or ENS domain, and of course your ape on their ride!



PHASE 3: SHAPING THE ECOSYSTEM

After delivering on Phase 2 roadmap items, we will move to Phase 3 to build an
ever-growing ecosystem where Ape Rides holders engage across tribes in a
rewarding space in which everyone can become a creator. To get the flavor, the
following are some of the elements on our path. Everything beyond that will be
shared as we progress. We are not putting a completion date behind Phase 3 as
this will be an ongoing endeavor which we want to enrich with innovation as we
progress.

Personalizing your Ape on Ride

A fancy sticker with your Twitter handle on it? Swapping that license plate for
your ENS Domain name… However you decide to make your ride personal, we got you
covered!

Engage To Earn

In Phase 3, we want to continue building an engaging, fun, and rewarding
ecosystem where Ape Ride holders can team up across tribes and compete for
benefits such as exclusive NFT drops for their Apes. Our vision is to open up
the space for creators who want to contribute to and benefit from the space and
make it more colorful – be it by creating new Ride features, or community
experiences.

Grow the Jungle

The Jungle is a habitat for hundreds of thousands of Apes – and we’ve seen
dozens of other creatures sneaking around. In Phase 3, we want to introduce a
process to make Ape Rides accessible to a sheer unlimited number of NFT
collections over time, hundreds of thousands of NFTs. With 80,000 eligible Apes
already at launch, we have confidence that this will work.

Jungle DAO

Finally, we want to continue writing the Jungle story together with the Ape
Rides community. The possibilities are sheer endless, let’s prioritize well.



No end in sight

Team



Elyott

Blame it on him – it was all his idea

Elyott is the founder and one of the two artists of Ape Rides. In his
professional career, he filled a number of leadership positions at global
consulting, tech, and retail players, most recently a director role at a
US-based fortune 500 tech compay. Crypto and arts being his passion, Elyott
dedicated himself fully to the NFT space in late 2021. His mega accomplishment,
let’s face it, was building an incredible team for Ape Rides.

What Elyott loves most about Ape Rides is the uncompromized delivery of full
body artwork for tens of thousands of Apes to make this project happen, a one of
a kind effort in the NFT space. He is a bit obsessed with it.

DAN

A DEVELOPER THAT’S NOW AN ARTIST? HUH?

Dan has a 20 year career primarily in web development, UX and UI design working
for a number of global financial services organizations. He’s always been a keen
and talented artist in his spare time, and after months of amazing feedback from
drawing 1-of-1s for communities in the NFT space Dan’s decided to take his
passion to the next level with Ape Rides after meeting Elyott.

His primary role within Ape Rides is producing the art which we cannot wait for
you to see. And with his development background and moderator roles within other
NFT communities in the past he has a very versatile skill set and turns his hand
to all aspects of the project to ensure its ongoing success after launch.

What Dan loves about Ape Rides is the fact that we are enhancing the apes you
own and love with a previously unseen level of detail, not simply altering and
losing your pfps identity like others before us.

blowing that you can place multiple apes in multiple rides within seconds.
Imagine what is next.
