Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVD #10 All Across America, Vol. 1
I cannot believe how much I love spinning. Actually…I hated every second when I first started...it took me about 6 long weeks going 3 days a week to get where I could do the entire class without feeling like throwing up or simply passing out! Now I just dance away at it and it almost feels like it's easy-ish. Of course, some days are harder than others but the scenery sure does help. The videos have also shown me some places where I know I'll never go but I feel like I know it as well as if I had traveled there! Pretty darn cool! We have all your videos in the standard format and they work perfectly on our screen. You can see our spin room if you go to our website. We love your videos.... --Peggie Muir, General Manager, CITY CLUB Fort Worth TexasI have never been a fan of bike racing videos in my Indoor Cycling classes. Too distracting. It's very much like watching a NASCAR race, you feel compelled to watch, waiting for the inevitable crash or some other drama. The creative team of Liz & Jan Hunter, the co-creators of the Bike-O-Vision DVD series, sent me a copy of their latest video to try out in my Spinning class. I liked it and so did the participants. My wife Amy (the senior group fitness instructor in my family) also liked them. Instead of creating a distraction, the pretty scenery you would see while riding these roads on your bike, added a nice atmosphere to the room. --John MacGowan, owner of (ICI/PRO) IndoorCyclingInstructor.com & cyclingstudio.orgBike-O-Vision thank you for providing virtual cycling videos on Blu-Ray! I wanted to get that out of the way first, because of my love for blu-ray. When it comes to virtual cycling videos the more realistic you can get the better. For me its helps me get into indoor cycling when i can totally immerse myself into the video. When it comes to high quality cycling videos I think its hard to beat Bike-O-Vision. They really have the market cornered on variety too! You can do a virtual ride in a National Park here in the USA or travel to Austria or even Hawaii! They also have a-try-a-ride option on their website where you can do a short demo of a particular ride you are thinking about purchasing. This is a great option for those of how would like to try before we buy. I recently had the chance to try out The Grand Tetons-Wyoming on Blu-Ray and Yellowstone National Park on DVD. Both are pretty amazing videos. The camera work is perfect. You will experience no bumps or shaky scenes. The Blu-Ray adds that extra bit of pop to the colors and textures of the video. Its amazingly real looking. The dvd is great too, but you do see the difference in the Blu-Ray quality. Both videos are broken up into different sections. This morning I was in a rush so I just took a quick 20 minute ride to see Old Faithful. I have to admit it was pretty cool to pull in at the exact time it was going off. One of the things that stands out to me on Bike-o-Visions videos is how when you arrive at a scenic place they actually pull in and stop for a few seconds to look at it. To me this is a nice touch that I haven't seen in a lot of videos. Check out Bike-O-Vision and I bet you find a particular ride that will appeal to you. They always have some amazing sales going on too! --Gabe Rogers at Ozarks Bike Trails
