'''Tossup-bonus cycle''' (or, in context, just '''cycle''') refers to a [[tossup]] and, if it is answered correctly, its accompanying [[bonus]].

The term is usually used in rules, for instance in the common rule that [[timeouts]] may only be called between cycles. This means that if a tossup goes dead, a timeout may be called before the next tossup is read; if a tossup is answered correctly, a timeout may not be called until the completion of the bonus.
