Ribbon Rider
Ribbon Rider from Mario Kart Tour
The Ribbon Rider in Mario Kart Tour
Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Ribbon Rider is a High-End kart in Mario Kart Tour. It was introduced in the London Tour and is the signature kart of Daisy (Holiday Cheer). The kart is a red, green, and gold Christmas-themed variant of the Birthday Girl with a star above the front bow. Unlike the Birthday Girl, it uses a variant of the Roller tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Also unlike the Birthday Girl, this kart increases the duration of Mini-Turbo speed boosts and the points earned for performing Mini-Turbos.
