Every once in a while, you may need a distraction from your work. A little entertainment that will help boost your energy levels may be just what you need. If you are feeling sleepy, don't just start up a boring game when you are taking a break. The game will just put you to sleep.

Instead, you may wish to try playing some stunt bike games. Stunt motorcycles have always been very popular, especially among the young. The races are very exciting to watch because danger is lurking in every corner of the game. At any moment, a biker may lose control of his or her motor bike and goes tumbling down a ramp or flying through the air.

No doubt, the challenges are formidable. It takes a really courageous biker with great skill to complete a race course. Of course, just like any race, the biker with the fastest race time wins the race.

To make things worse, some races are conducted with many bikers starting at the same time. Imagine having to conquer the obstacles and having to watch out for your competition. No wonder so many bikers fail to complete the race!

As you can probably tell by now, stunt biking is not for the faint hearted. It can be a dangerous sport. So, if you wish to avoid these dangers and yet experience the thrill of performing stunts, then you next alternative is to play stunt games.

These games are Flash based games that are designed to give you a little measure of excitement that is experienced in a real race. Of course, you can't expect it to be like the real thing, but you can still have loads of fun with the games.

There are many race courses to choose from - Stunt Dirt Bike, Motorbike Madness, Motocross Rush, Nuclear Bike Tricks , and more. For each course, the obstacles and setting is different. The controls are similar though. You use the arrow keys to control the bike.

Like a real stunt bike, you spend a lot of time in the air. That is when you can perform the stunts. You can use the FRONT and BACK arrow keys to lean forward or backwards so that the motorcycle starts spinning. It's all about the distribution of weight. You have to be a little careful though. If you lean too much forward or backwards, you may lose balance and fall heavily to the ground.

Since everything is virtual, you don't get hurt, but you may need to restart the course again. In some races, you have an energy bar. Your energy allows you to fall several times throughout the course of the race. If your energy runs dry, you are out of luck!

Playing these games can help you relax and the best part is, you don't have to pay a single cent to start playing. All you need is an Internet connection, and the latest web browser, and you are good to go. Take note of the time though. Time flies when you are having fun!
