Get ready for La Vuelta

Vuelta a España 2013 kicks off in about two weeks and it’s time to start getting ready for the third and last Grand Tours this year.

The riders have been fine-tuning their shape the last couple of weeks and if you want to see who’s already doing great, be sure to follow Vuelta a Burgos and Eneco Tour this and next week. There are free online live streams for all the stages in Vuelta a Burgos while Eurosport is broadcasting Eneco Tour starting on Monday (12^th of August).

If you want to try out this Vuelta España for yourself, why not pick one of the 22 teams and give it a go in the new Pro Cycling Manager game? Click on the banner below to download the game and see if you have what it takes to win the Red Jersey in Madrid.

I will publish my Overall Preview of La Vuelta in a week or so and of course, there will be daily stage previews throughout the race. Stay tuned for more!

Get ready for the Tour de France

Today Pro Cycling Manager 2013 & Tour de France 2013 hit the shelves. There are still 1½ weeks to this year’s Tour de France starts and if you find yourself with time on your hands, why not try your luck as manager for a professional team?

These two games give you an excellent opportunity to get to know all the riders before the Tour starts. Reading this site, you are no stranger to the professional peloton but do you know about the small teams and their riders as well? Sojasun takes part in the Tour de France this year. Why not try managing the little French team and get to know their riders’ strengths? Or what about managing Team Sky and make your own pecking order in the race?

The games are available for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Click on the banner below for more details on where to buy or download the games.
