Product Description: The very first Bike-O-Vision cycling journey DVD was video taped while in Europe. And though a little bumpy in spots, you will definitely experience a sampling of the essence of Europe's diverse beauty from the Austrian Alps to the banks of the Rhine River, through the vineyards of Alsace, France, along the Italian Riviera, through the Cottswald English countryside, and finally through the rugged pastures of Wales. The very first Bike-O-Vision journey produced! Gyms and health clubs see Bike-O-Vision.com
Great Video - I loved it! I love to cycle, and love this series of workout DVDs. This one is the shortest of the group (I have them all), only 40 minutes but really interesting because of the diverseness of scenery through Europe. They are great compliments to indoor cycling because the realistic view of the "forward motion" you get keeps you wanting to push ahead instead of slow down. Definitely a different perspective, virtually. I now have all their videos and use them over and over for daily workouts. There are a lot of rides so I never get bored. I also appreciate the lack of commentary (any riders on the screen) and graphics that are on similar cycling videos. I've recommended the series to all my cycling friends, and they seem to have gotten into them too.
indifferent The site seeing is nice but it's pretty slow, and the music selection doesn't exactly motivate you.
What a great concept! What a perfect way to learn and see great travel footage while working out! I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered these, but I was pleasently surprised. Basically it's just really nice footage of scenic driving and biking routes set to music. I have a television right in front of my exercise bike, and I even watch it from the tread mill. Keep 'em coming!
Not for bikers looking for a training ride If you are a biker looking for a winter work out video this is not for you. I bought 2 of these for my husband. I ordered them in early November and they did not arrive until early February. This one is a little better than the All Across America one, but they are nothing more than short choppy scenes with cheesey music, not what you need for a training ride. I am very disappointed. I am glad I also ordered one from Carmichael Training. That one was just what my husband was looking for.
