Tour de France is by far the most popular cycling event in the annual calendar. The 2018 competition is underway in full swing. It has just reached the half-way stage. The German Greg Van Avermaet is leading the pack, followed by Geraint Thomas of Britain. While you follow the ups and downs of your favourite cyclists, check out the video slot Pedal Power. This slot machine with a bicycling theme was released by Microgaming on the occasion of the 2009 Tour de France. It is live at online casinos like 32Red, All Slots and Jackpot City.

The five high paying symbols are cyclists. The styling of the graphics brings out the speed and furiousness of the race. One of them has just reached the Finish line. He is already wearing the yellow jersey given to the winner. The low paying symbols are the usual playing card icons from 10 to Ace designed in steel colour to go with the bicycling theme. Each of them also has a cycling accessory like gloves, shoes, shades, pump and water bottle. The wild symbol is the Trophy. In the win animation it is hoisted against a background of Paris landmarks like the Arc de Triumph and the Eiffel Tower. This symbol also awards the highest line payout of 2000 coins for a five-of-a-kind win. The watch is the scatter symbol and it awards payouts multiplied by the total bet.

There are two gaming features in Pedal Power online slot. When three or more scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels, the free spins feature is triggered. You have to choose from three sets offered. The first one is most conservative and it awards 25 free spins at 2x multiplier. The second awards 10 free spins at 5x multiplier. The last one is most volatile and awards 5 free spins at 10x multiplier. You can activate the optional Microgaming gamble game after any winning spin. It gives you the chance of doubling or quadrupling the payout, but you also run the risk of losing it all.

Pedal Power is a 5x3 slot game with 15 selectable paylines. The maximum line bet is $2 and the maximum total bet is $30. The slot game will predominantly attract low rollers, apart from those interested in the cycling theme. The volatility would be medium to high. Pedal Power has all the Microgaming functionalities like auto play and customisation options.
