The Cycles: International Grand Prix Racing

DOS - 1989
Also available on: Amiga - Amstrad CPC - Commodore 64 - ZX Spectrum

Based on Grand Prix Circuit's engine, The Cycles was revolutionary for its time: it was the only motorcycle game at the time with a first-person perspective.

Accolade continues its strong point in graphics, as turns are depicted realistically and the animations of other racers are very smooth. Choose from 5 skill levels, then compete in 3 performance classes (500, 250, or 125cc) in the world's most grueling courses that range from Australia to Brazil.

Another forgotten classic that reaffirms Accolade as the premier developer of sport games.

It was a hint that i forgot how to do, but it was possible to keep the opponents stopped after the green flag.

The game has a Cracktro injected into it, which prevents it from running for me, using either ntvdm or dosbox. If I replace GPEGA.EXE with the one that's been floating around all PCs in the 1990s, it works. Unfortunately, I don't have the CGA version for a complete package. (I can't play it smoothly under XP though.)

Runs perfectly fine using Boxer (DosBox mac os x Front end). Ran GPCGA.exe, you do not need to run install.

I have downloaded the game Cycles: International Grand Prix Racing of size 336kb and extracted all the files to a folder. Then I click theinstall button to get the game installed but after extracting around 68 files, the system is asking to Insert the Master Disk. Please help on how to solve this problem?
