Something for those dark Christmas nights

[Colin Blackburn]

I just noticed these while looking for something else...

Two cycling-based board/card games:

Breaking Away (road racing) Devil-Take-The-Hindmost (track racing)

both are available from: http://www.sportsgameshop.com/oth.html

as well as your LGS (if you've got one.) There are reviews of the first one at:
http://www.fbgames.co.uk/games/ba/baway.htm

They both come out pretty well at http://www.boardgamegeek.com, a very good site for those who want
games info.

LGS are, sadly, rather few and far between in the UK, but uk.games.board has a FAQ with a few good
ones listed. You can dig it out with some apposite Googling, of course.

Wherein there are nine cycle racing games listed:

Unfortunately Devil-Take-The-Hindmost is shown in its original German car racing version I think.
