Customer Reviews

great cycling game
I bought Pro Cycling manager for my sons 15th birthday. He loves montain biking and watching the Tour De France on the television.
He has been absolutely delighted with this pc game as it allows you to pick your own cycling teams and race the different stages of the tour, ensuring that all your riders are fed and watered. You are able to position the riders in the pelaton and have them sprint or be pacemakers. This is quite a complex game at first and I think you would have to enjoy arranging teams and rider ability/costs of running a team etc. We have owned this game for a few months now and is still keeping my son interested.

Boyfriend's favourite
I bought this as a present to cheer my cycle-mad boyfriend up after a hard week, and it certainly did! The game has not been off the PC since he got it; he is addicted.

The game however did take a very long time to initially install.

Pro Cycling Manager
This game is very complicated and not the easiest to use. Perhaps just me but I am persevering with it.
