Boosting Bike (2014)

Boosting Bike is a cycling game, with a special focus on making the movement of a peloton of cyclists on the board realistic, to have a "peloton feel" in the way riders move. The number of riders in the race is fixed to sixteen (four teams of four riders). If there are less than four players, some of them have to take more than one team. The rules say that the game is for 1 to 5 players. Of course, in the case of playing solo, the player takes all four teams. This lets clear that, although this not just a roll-and-move game and there are a fair number of decisions to be taken at each turn, there is not a complex strategy involved in the game. The game does not include rules for different types of roads or riders. It represents a race on a flat circuit. The winner of the game is the player who's riders arrive first at the finish.
