Gameplay
Based around the internationally acclaimed event in world cycle race The Milk Race (now known as Tour of Britain). This simulator was designed to coincide with the 1987 event, starting in Newcastle upon Tyne, through the North of England, and down through the Midlands, to London for the finishing line. The basic premise of the game is to control a bike using acceleration, braking and choosing the correct gear to conserve energy.
