Description

This game (named after one of the best cyclists of all time), simulates a cycling race. Each player controls a team of cyclists and tries to earn as much prize money as possible during a three lap race.

You move either by rolling a die (other players who are in the square behind the moving player can 'go with the flow, and follow up for free) or by playing a 'break away card' (other players cannot follow). The number of 'break away cards' that can be played, is determined by the number of players.

If a cyclist is alone in the lead, he moves slower. Cyclist can also choose to wait for a following group in order to save their strength.

Prize money is awarded each round, according to the position in the race.
