Tactical, dramatic, accessible, nail-biting

About this game

Bicycle racing game where each player controls two riders — a sprinter and a rouleur — managing separate decks of speed cards. Play cards to move, but used cards create exhaustion that clogs your deck. Drafting behind opponents saves energy.
