In the Tour de France 2016 for consoles, play as some people riding bikes who are seeking to wear the yellow jersey in the 21 stages of the 2016 Tour, and in other big competitions such as the Criterium International or the Dauphiné. You will guide your rider and you will have to attack, sprint, counter-attack, choose the best trajectory and make the best tactical decisions.
