==Cheating==
A {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Cycling Road access requirement bypassing|glitch}} exists in [[Generation I]] that allows the player to get on to Cycling Road without a [[Bicycle]]. If the player exploits this glitch without ever obtaining the item and gets on Cycling Road, the player will still be riding a bike. This is because the game assumes that the player has a Bicycle if they can get past the guard in the checkpoint.
In Generations {{gen|I}}, {{gen|II}} and {{gen|III}}, if the player uses a [[cheating]] mechanism to walk through walls, they will be able to enter the Cycling Road without passing by the gate with the guard. Once this is done, the player will be freely able to either walk or ride their bicycle on the Cycling Road; in Generation I only, the player will also be free to {{m|Surf}} on the Cycling Road.
In Generations I and II (but not in Generation III), a player walking on the Cycling Road is still affected the slope.
In Generations I and III, if the player enters the Cycling Road normally but leaves using a cheat to walk through walls, they will remain unable to stop riding their bicycle anywhere; and in Generation I only, the player will remain unable to Surf anywhere. If the player enters a building and then leaves it, or (in Generation III only) if the player uses {{m|Surf}} and then stops surfing, then they will not be riding their bicycle anymore, but they will be unable to use their bicycle again.
The normal bicycle game mechanics are restored once the player enters and leaves the Cycling Road normally, or travels somewhere else using {{m|Fly}}.

* One of the signs along the route says "''Don't throw the game, throw [[Poké Ball]]s instead''", probably referring to the fact the player may get frustrated with the fact that they're losing a battle, and also it is common for someone to throw a game controller, or a hand-held console, if they get frustrated at a game, thus [[breaking the fourth wall]].
