Flamme Rouge

You may move through other riders but you cannot end your movement on an occupied lane; if a square is fully occupied you must stop behind it in the first square with a free lane (squares can have 1–3 lanes). (p. 1)

Cobblestone sections forbid slipstreaming to/from riders on them, while Supply Zones are 3-lane sections where slipstreaming works normally and any rider who starts their turn there has a minimum speed of 4. (p. 1)

Each player picks a rider, draws 4 cards from that rider’s Energy deck, secretly plays one as a bid (recycling the others), reveals it, then repeats a second round; totals of the two played cards decide who enters the breakaway (top two in 5–6 players, top one in 2–4), with ties won by the backmost rider. Played cards of riders who make the breakaway are removed and those riders take 2 Exhaustion cards; losing bidders recycle their used cards and all recycled cards are shuffled back into decks. (p. 2)

The Peloton uses a single Rouleur deck (with two Attack! cards added), places its two riders one in front of the other in the start, doesn’t bid, and each Movement phase you flip one card for it and move both riders; if an Attack! card is flipped the front rider moves 2 spaces and the rear rider moves 9 spaces, and the Peloton never takes Exhaustion. (p. 3)

Each Muscle Team uses both decks of a color (with one Muscle card added to the Sprinteur deck), places the Sprinteur in front of the Rouleur in the yellow start area, doesn’t bid, and during Movement you flip and resolve a card for each of its riders as normal; Muscle Teams never take Exhaustion. (p. 3)

You can play up to 12 players by giving each player a single rider (no player boards), youngest picks first then clockwise, each player uses that rider’s Energy deck, and it’s recommended to use the Breakaway variant (each player’s single rider is the one used in the Bidding Phase). (p. 4)
