Every player gets a team of 3 plastic cyclists. In the beginning every player gets a number of tactical cards. Movement is decided by the dice and influenced by the cards. In the mountains the number rolled by the dice is divided by two. Cyclists can also encounter a flat tire (caused by rolling two 1's with the dice), if this happens to the team leader, he can be helped by a teammate if necessary.
