If the default content isn't enough, Pro Cycling Manager features a couple of editors that allow you to create custom riders for filling out the few missing real-world riders and races from existing events.

You can also edit stages yourself, since they are simple XML files, so the game is really quite unlimited in its potential. The career mode lets you control a single team on its way to world domination.

You will have to control your finances by signing sponsors and adjusting rider contracts, scout new talent around the globe, and improve your existing squad by running training camps. There is certainly enough here to keep you busy for quite a while if you are more interested in a longer experience.

Also, Pro Cycling Manager uses an outside program by the same developer for multiplayer matches that are both fun and easy to join. It's always better to play against unpredictable human opponents rather than the boring ol' AI, so it's nice to see well-implemented multiplayer.

So the features are robust, how about the gameplay? The races of Pro Cycling Manager play out like a simple strategy game where you, as team director, will instruct your riders when to attack and when to conserve. Before each race, you will need to assign a team leader, team-mates to back him up, a sprinter for capturing points, and free riders to do their own thing. During the race, each driver will be given a maximum effort level and an order. You won't actually control any rider directly except in the track racing mode , but the AI will follow your orders well.

Orders include holding position, applying a specific effort level, relaying to the front of the pack, feeding, attacks, counter-attacks, and sprints. Each rider has three energy bars: green for the entire race, yellow for high-speed sections, and red for attacks. In order to break away from the peloton the gigantic group of riders where almost everyone hangs out , you'll need to have almost full yellow and red bars. The strategy comes in when you attack: you have to consider how much energy an attack will use your rider will not be able to hold a fast pace for the entire race , the upcoming geography attacking on a hill is tough , your rider's stats some are better on flat sections , and other factors.

It's pretty interesting, I think, since most of the tracks don't have obvious places to attack and the races play out differently each time. The AI does a good job offering up varied attacks, but they can be beaten if you execute a sound strategy. For the first time in the series track cycling is introduced, although the cycling itself isn't that good - again. With poor graphics and animations, watching a pack of riders is like' watching a cloud of gaudily-dressed flies huddle around a high-speed turd.

With an unimpressive racing interface, in which you give your team commands, the 3D aspect of the game is lacking. Look beyond this, and you get a solid management game. While it may not be as polished as the big-hitters like Football Manager, it hangs together. With attention to aspects like sponsors, hiring and firing riders, and control over which events to race in, the management part of the game is worth sinking a few hours into.
