Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

This is not "much guessing".
After line and color logic only black is left.
edge logic 3 r20 = c5 white
ll to finish.

This series is pretty funny and the puzzles are interesting to solve. Good work!

Seems to me the best way to "win" at bicycle jousting is not to play ...

Much like Global Thermonuclear War.

Your parents must have been thrilled. Great illustration. It hurts to look at it.

No guessing required at all. Great picture. Thank you.

I too, believe I solved it without having to guess.... It was tons of fun to solve, and a fun, colorful solution it is! Couldn't leave to go cycling without first solving it though... Free at last :)

Now I have to go back and watch the chariot scene in Ben Hur.

Hmm. We got us a bug. This is back to "much guessing" even though I marked it as "DEFINITELY logically solvable with moderate lookahead".
The "View Information" window has "much guessing", but my puzzle screen comes up with 'Definitely mod' just as I marked it. But something didn't take.

I'll try marking it again.

Ok, it's back to 'definitely mod lookahead' on the view info window. Let's see if it stays this time.
