Missions are a gameplay feature in Sonic Riders. They are a set of single-lap races performed on the different courses available within the game, but with different rules than in Normal Race or Story Mode. They are divided into schedules by the three members of the Babylon Rogues: Storm's missions are available after completing the Heroes Story, Wave's missions are available after completing the first stage of the Babylon Story, and Jet's missions become available after unlocking Sega Carnival and Sega Illusion and completing all of the missions in Wave and Storm's schedules.
The player will receive an Emblem for completing a mission, which can be bronze, silver, or gold. Completing all missions in the game on at least bronze will unlock the characters AiAi, NiGHTS, and Ulala as well as their respective Extreme Gears, BANANA, Night Sky, and Channel5. Obtaining gold emblems on all missions will additionally unlock the Chaos Emerald Extreme Gear, plus it will add the Extreme Gears Opa Opa, The Crazy, Hang-On, and Super Hang-On to the shop.
There are a total of 100 missions the player can complete: 40 are available in Storm's schedule on the courses in the Heroes Story plus Digital Dimension and Sega Carnival, 40 are available in Wave's schedule on the courses in the Babylon Story plus Sega Illusion, and 20 are available in Jet's schedule on all the courses available in Normal Race mode.

Trivia
In Storm and Wave's schedules, the fourth and fifth missions of any stage can only be unlocked by completing the first three missions of the respective stage, and every fifth stage in Storm's schedule will hold a secret hidden item for restoring an unlockable Extreme Gear using the junk collected.
In some of the missions in Storm and Wave's schedules, the player will use the High Booster and the Air Tank, even if these gears haven't been purchased.
Furthermore, in the fifth missions of the second and fourth stages of Jet's missions, he will ride the Speed Balancer instead of his signature Type-J.
Amy and Cream are only playable within the first missions for every stage in Storm and Wave's missions, respectively.
When playing as Sonic, he will ride the Blue Star for every stage in Storm's missions, but he will ride the Blue Star II for every stage in Wave's missions.
