I was tackling the chiliad challenges, and took a nose dive off the
mountain. I woke up in Angel Pine hospital, stole the mountain bike from the
foot of Chiliad, and made my way back to the top. I got there at about 12.30
am game time and as and it's pretty dull up there, so I had CJ doing
wind-sprints to build up stamina while I waited until the 7am start time. At
about 6 am I stopped, looked south-east, and *just then* the sun came up.

I know it's a computer game, I know it's not real, but for one moment, I was
like "whoah"; It looked *incredible*.

Hats off to the people at Rockstar for taking the time to code a sunrise.

It looks especially good flying high in a plane with the cinematic
camera view on.

I saw this plenty of times whilst flying a Dodo up there early in the
game to complete the challenges. Y'know, it's not actually that hard
with four stars. Ideally good cycling skill is handy, but not essential.

Cheers,
Rob
