Play for as long as you like
One stage, five stages or the full race — it’s up to you!
🎯 Goal of the game
At each stage, get rid of your cards… not your friends!
The race is played over a series of stages, each with its own special rules.
At the start of each stage, all players have 8 cards in hand, and players take turns playing.
To win a stage, you must be the first rider to play all your cards.
The more cards your opponents still have in their hands, the more time advantage you gain in the overall classification.
But beware — nothing is decided in advance, and everything can change in a single stage
(watch out for punctures…)
This is a strategy game, not a speed game!
You’ve already raced over 2,000 times — thank you!
