Fantastic! A must for a cycling fan.

I definitely recommend this app to all cycling fans. I cant wait to play while Im on the exercise bike!

Whats great:
* Panoramic camera is really cool. Can see yourself from 360 degrees, plus roughly another 30 degrees in the vertical.

* You actually have to pay attention to your food so you dont bonk.

* Realistic - I was part of a breakaway in Stage #1 and pulled out the victory! I mistakenly thought I could do it again in stage #2 as well.... I went on a solo breakaway and ended up getting caught by the peloton AND I subsequently got dropped and finished D...Fn...L. So now I am starting stage #3 at the bottom in the GC. So.... Dont get cocky! Play like its real!

* Clouds - clouds in the sky! Nice touch.

* Playability - controls are good.

* Enjoyment - you can get into the zone playing this. Both exciting and relaxing.

Needed improvements:
* Longer stages (not 5 hours or anything, just a bit longer).
* A little less flicking in the peloton. Its can be overly rough.
* Phil & Paul doing commentary (j/k).
* The GC leader in the yellow jersey.
* Finish line celebration!
* Overall more features. Im thrilled this game was made... Now I want it to be more realistic to a grand tour.... i.e. Green Jersey. Group sprints to the line. Polkadot Jersey. Getting water from the team car. Teammates. Kisses from the umbrella-girls on the podium. Bobke cameos.

****But most important... Please add crazy fans along the roadside and at least one jumping devil.****

An idea for the game developer: Contact actual teams for in game sponsorship... They would get advertising and you could finance more improvements with that income. Also consider contacting Versus (OLN) and even cycling celebrities for possible contributions and/or sponsorship opportunities. Feel free to contact me about this review and the ideas contained herein (goggle me).

So, at long last Im giving this game my *provisional* five-star rating under the understanding that you will continue to improve this application... Without improvements, I would still give this a super-solid four.

Thank you,
CJ
