There is a track that runs around the Goblin areas of Azshara. You can talk to a goblin at one of four towers along this track for quick travel around the area via rocket, and this Achievement is earned by riding from one end to the other. Tested this on the PTR.

Commento di 83612

Simply go from one end to the other. South Terminus to North, or the other way around. It's the places where you can see the little red boot with wings indicating a flight path.

Walk/take rocket to here (If you walk, walk on the track cus otherwise u have to run throw cliffs and so on, btw were im located on that map is were you take the first rocket)

When ur there talk to the goblin and choose this one

After done that the rocket will take u through the whole track and you will get the achievement

Commento di 708186

Well sems that I got it from southern terminus to northern one and it is not broken. I was simply too eager to get it and was jumping off the rocket at the platform. If you stay on the rocket from southern to northern terminus **UNTIL IT LANDS ON THE GROUND** you will get the achievement =)

Commento di 8640

So what is Alliance version of this achievment? (Just asking, because I will change fractions after Cata...)

Commento di omnom

Here's how to do this achievement:

Go to the tower at ~66, 20. You can use an elevator on the side of the tower to get up there.
Talk to Bilgewater Rocket-jockey next to the goblin selling Engineering Supplies
Pick the 4th choice: "Southern Rocketway Terminus, please."
Wait until the rocket has taken you to ~51, 75. Once you land, you'll get the achievement.

Or if you're at the southern side of Azshara, talk to Bilgewater Rocket-jockey and pick the 4th choice, "Northern Rocketway Terminus, please."
Note: I didn't get a chance to try it from south to north but since the achievement doesn't specify that you should go to either south or north, I'm assuming you get the achievement both ways.

Commento di 447611

This was definitely enjoyable to do. If Blizz put this in during vanilla WoW, I probably would have enjoyed questing in this zone a lot more.

Commento di Neuf

Make sure you're going to the Northern Terminus. NOT the Northern Exchange.

Commento di xmanii

That was a blast! Goblin engineering at it's finest! Especially when you take the corners.

Commento di JoKyR

With so many people posting that they got the achievement from going one direction, but not the other, I'm guessing that, perhaps, you only get the achievement by going the entire track in both directions.

Me, I started at the Orgrimmar Exchange, went to the Southern Terminus, then to the Northern Terminus, and then back to the Southern Terminus before I got this acheivement.

Commento di Murcia

I went from Southern Terminus to Northern and I got credit. Just stay on the rocket until it kicks you off of it, don't jump off yourself. Make sure you go from Terminus to Terminus. And hold on tight!

Commento di kcz421

Worked only from northern to southern for me. Waited til it was about to crash on the ground and was put back on the platform and waited a couple of seconds.

Did try southern to northern, waited, didn't get it.

Commento di 672889

what category is this in?

Commento di Krusader

Hello, you fool, I love you

Commento di LFheals09

really fun achievement.
Ride it from south to north didn't get achievement, but worth taking the ride back again lol.

Commento di 642053

Gotta fly from north to south for it to register.

Commento di 758177

Didn't get this going from north to south, but immediately after when doing south to north. Maybe you have to do both?

Commento di Mydge

Bugged for me South to North. Worked fine North to South.

However, I think that you should only get the achievement for N-S, as this is clearly the super-fun-happy-slide version of it! XD

Commento di 727068

There seems to be a issue with which direction you take but when I took it starting North to South the first time I didn't get credit. I took it again from South to North and got it.

Commento di ShadowHunter7

Ride the rocket, play "Life is a Highway" by Rascal Flatts and you're all set.

Commento di 773508

I just got it going from South to North. I didn't get it right away. But as soon as I stepped near the NPC's there they said, "Welcome to the Northern Rocketway Terminus! You probably took a wrong turn, but we're happy to have you anyway!" Then I got the achiev. Hope this helps.

Commento di Talvias

When goblins rule Azeroth, this is what transportation is gonna be like. None of those old fashioned wind riders.

Commento di LatinLegend

To play it safe, just go both ways. It did not work for me going North to South. I simply talked to the NPC at the south tower & went back to the north. Once I got off of the rocket, I took a few steps forward & the achievement triggered.

Commento di r8dj

This achievement still appears to be buggy or you must ride the circuit to both termini. Going from south terminus to north did not work for me, but the achievement registered on the return trip.

Commento di 597835

Worked for me - I rode both ways South to North Tenamus, then right back from the North Tenamus to the South Tenamus. After it dismounted me the ach took about 3 secs to pop up

Commento di Yurpally

I did the south to north ride and when he hopped off the end I got the achieve just fine right away.....

Commento di 692839

Just go north to south trust me. Its the way to go folks. Obviously South to north has some problems sometimes... who knows. Jam to some music/alt tab to wowhead and enjoy the ride. :]

Commento di bleakraven

Me and my friends take bets and make rocket races, we all jump on a rocket at the same time and hope ours is the one that arrives first :P

Commento di 805656

Same story today, South to North didn't work, rode it from North to South for the achievement. Fun ride might as well do it twice.

Commento di helmates

Likewise, I tried South Terminus to North on my lvl 85 Paladin and got no Achievement. I promptly turned around and went from North Terminus to South and got the Achievement, but there was about a 4 second delay in the achi popping up.

I guess there is something going on inthe background which might occasionally mess up? Just a guess.

Commento di 810957

gone both ways several times. no achievement :(

Commento di 813268

not sure how relevant this is to most people but the jockeys are red for me. i can't talk to them i just wind up auto attacking. pretty sure this may have something to do with me being hated by various goblin factions since attempting the insane title requirements. but i haven't done any questing out here either. =/

Commento di 798203

LIke wise with many other people that have posted. I did not receive the achievement for riding it south -> north but did receive it when I went back going north -> south

I would strongly advise just going north to south and not bother attempting south to north.

Commento di 785496

I went the south to north and I got it the first time. I did have to wait for the rocket to crash before it actually gave me credit. Maybe you can't move until after it crashes?

Commento di gizmohawk69

Notice that the rocket is targetable... it's name is Redhound Projectile Transit. Obvious play on the Greyhound buses.

Commento di Damonra

I took it on my goblin rogue from the Southern Terminas to the Northern one, then had to walk a few feet to get the achievement. It's one helluva long ride. No wonder they made it an achievement.

If you're going to do this, make sure you're going to the Terminus, not the Exchange.

Commento di Neutralis

I had fun with this one. Went from South to North got to the platform and waited until it kicked me off. Then I walked 2 steps and got the achievement. I should've recorded it. lol

Commento di 974267

4/8/2012 -- I went from the Southern Rocketway Terminus to the Northern Rocketway Terminus and got the achievement. I think the people that were having trouble with the Southern way were selecting Northern Exchange instead of Terminus. Make sure you read the options before you click.

Commento di 973188

And no, when you earn it you still have your virginity.

Commento di nsonger

Am I the only one who actually enjoys going from South Terminus to North Terminus, then going from North to South and doing that over and over again?

Commento di Roserud

If you enjoy riding the awesome red rocket, you better buy your own Razzo Fatuo X-51 X-TREME!

Commento di 1065519

Yesterday I finished the Ghosts in the Dark achievement in Darkshore which can only be done for alliance. Today I noticed on my horde characters I have this Joy Ride achievement and I got it yesterday. So these achievements are linked. Just like the Darkshore Quests and Azshara Quests achievements, by the way.

Commento di 1117474

It works either way to get this achievement as long as you ride the full length of the rocketway. I hope this helps

Commento di 313976

You must travel the length of the track in one go. The rocket at the southern rocketway terminus is targetable. If you hop into the rocket, it will take you to the next stop NOT the whole distance of the track. Talk to the rocket-jockey to travel the full distance.

Commento di Ayistromia

I do believe this achieve is glitched as of 5.3
What happens for me: I talk to little funny goblin, ask him for a ride to Southern Terminus (I'm at the Northern Terminus), the rocket appears and before I can get on it.... fades away. *sigh* It's because I'm broke, isn't it? Next you know they'll charge me double for being a Tauren. Sneaky little goblinses.

Commento di 1122928

when ı go rocket-jockey ı talk but ı cant use rocket

after the rocket come rocket is gone

Commento di kedja

Exactly the same. The rocket fade away before I can jump on it. I tried in termina and exchanges.

Commento di Eighjan

Odd - I'm sure I got this on my Hunter when he was still an Orc, before I x-factioned to Dwarf :-/

The other point than may be relevant is that your character may need to have some level of Riding to actually use the rocketway... I'll confirm on my only Hordie that has Riding & report back.

Commento di Calos77

Can't do this one as I think the rocket ride itself is bugged. I tried to get on a rocket but as soon as it appears it disappears like within 2 seconds. Fix this blizz plz! :(

Commento di 1126720

The most important of all to get this achievement "unlock" - you have to discover the entire rocket way path first before you're able to launch the rock and obtain achievement "Joy Ride" (10 achievement points) :)

Commento di Fledhyris

I have an Alliance and a Horde character. My achievements state that my ALLY (!) has both fully completed Azshara exploration and ridden the rocketway, never having been anywhere near it and even before my Horde had discovered the region. Weird bug!

Commento di ElicaQT

I did this today by going south to north (dont jump off until u auto-dismount). Choose Terminus, not Exchange. So, if this one was buggy before where you didnt get the ach by going south-north, it's fixed. If you for some reason dont get the achievement, go opposite way.

Times:
From north to south: 1:54 min
From south to north: 2:03 min
Between south and north with my 310% flying mount: 1:07 min (the shortest way, across the water)

How to find the towers: If you look at the map over Azshara, you can see a dotted track going between south and north in a half circle (it sort of follows the shore). The towers you want for this ach, are at the end and beginning (they have flight paths marked on them). The southern tower is about in the middle of the map to the south and the northern tower is to the north slightly to the east. If you're close to a middle tower and you dont have a flying mount, I recommend you to grab a rocket from one of those towers and go to either north or south Terminus for a fast travel and then go to the opposite Terminus to get the achievement.

How to ride the rocket: Go up the tower (there is an elevator) and talk to a goblin (chat bubble when you mouse over him). Choose where to go. Enjoy the ride!

Screenshot over the map (towers marked, black ones are middle-towers) : Towers (pic on fb)

Edit: Added how to find the towers and link.

Commento di Stizelswik

Here's a thought... (tee hee hee) maybe they switch it every so often to fool with us! :p

Commento di 1077873

Just completed as a level 2 hunter. You must ride the full length of the track, non-stop, from the North Terminus to the South Terminus or vice-versa. Beware at the north end if you're low level. The rocket let me off away from the tower and next to some mobs that I immediately aggroed. My pet slowed 'em down ever so briefly but not enough for me to get away....death was inevitable. But hey, I got my achievement before I croaked! ;-)

Commento di Taraezor

Saw someone down voted for saying this. Bit harsh. So allow me: Definitely Horde only. The NPCs you must talk to are hostile for Alliance players, despite there being a mix of friendly/hostile at the terminuses.

So impossible for Alliance toons. As per indications elsewhere on this webpage. But you came here before you knew that, just to be sure.

(Lol, getting down voted too! C'mon! Don't be gutless, say why you down voted. I don't bite!)

Commento di 1673110

The best way to do this is while making /train noises.
