This "quick tutorial" introduces the general idea of a call and explains the most common cases. It does not explain or illustrate all cases. For additional details and/or examples, refer to the links in the "MORE INFO" box.
Cycle and Wheel is a combination of Recycle and Wheel and Deal. It allows these actions to be done from any kind of four-person line. If the dancers in one half of the line are standing as a couple (facing the same direction as each other), they do a Wheel and Deal. If they are in a mini-wave, they do what they would do for a Recycle from the same position.
Regardless of how they start, the dancers from each half of the line end as a couple. If ends of the original line were facing in opposite directions, the resulting couples will be facing each other.
If the ends of the original line started facing in the same direction, then the resulting couples will be facing the same direction as each other. The end who was on the right "passes right shoulders" and the dancers from that half of the line become the couple standing in front.
