What is it like for a rider as he climbs Alpe d'Huez? How deep must he dig as he battles his way from Liege to Bastogne (and back again)?
Pro Cycling Manager puts you in charge of a top professional cycling team. Hire and fire riders; train them and keep a close eye on their fitness. Hone them for the big events (the spring and autumn classics; the tours of Italy, France and Spain,...) plus hundreds of other racers across a season spanning ten months. Inside each race micro-manage each of your riders, keeping a close eye on heart rates and energy levels. Let your team leader throw down the gauntlet to his main rivals or set up your sprinter for the mad dash to the line. And after hundreds of races and thousands of kilometres of asphalt, Managing Director will look at your results and decide whether he wants to keep you for another year. Cycling is not for the weak of heart...

For those of you who have played, and enjoyed, Cycling Manager 4, Pro Cycling Manager could be just what you've been waiting for for your next fix of cycling management.

This addictive manager game has impressive graphics and a realistic feel to it. You must make decisions as your team progresses, day by day, in numerous events that span the globe.

There are, however quite a few bugs in this game - although nothing too annoying that it will spoil your enjoyment. One of the most obvious is the fact that the introduction to each race is sometimes spoilt by the fact that the commentator seems to be talking about an entirely different race.

While this is not going to be to everyone's taste, Pro Cycling Manager won't disappoint those who like a good manager game.
