Cycling Board Games

Internationales 6 Tage Rennen. 6-Day themed boardgame from Germany, 1970s.

Giuoco del Velodromo. Track racing game from Italy, 1960s.

L'Échapée Infernale. Tour de France game, still being made today. You can even buy an edition with modern team jerseys on the cyclists here.

Ciclopist. A Spanish track racing game from the 1940s.

If you're a nerd like me, then check out Cycling Boardgames for info on every cycling boardgame ever made. There's a surprising number of them.

Jessi, glad you like 'em! Hope NY is treating you right.

Juan, most of the games are vintage, so maybe try ebay? l'Échappée Infernal is still being made, click the link on the main page.

Some may feel squeamish about eating it, but rabbit has a fan base that grows as cooks discover how easy they are to raise — and how good the meat tastes.
