The problem with this indoor cycling video is that every time a hill is approached there is a change in scenery (to birds, sealife, etc.). There are some long downhill jaunts, but whoever edited this video edited out all of the climbs. There is frequently a sense of a hill approaching ahead and the suddenly, you are at the top of the hill. I would recommend this video for simulated downhill skiing.Best Deals for Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVD #4 California Coast
Beautiful scenery and I get a great workout. I play my own tunes because the classical music is a bit slow and is not as motivating for me. There is no coaching but I am able to challenge myself so that is not an issue. I have Bike-O-Vision's Grand Canyon/Sedona AZ, Zion Nat Park/So Utah & California Coast which are all over 74 minutes. I am very happy with all the DVD's and would recommend them.Honest reviews on Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVD #4 California Coast
What a great idea! The quality is excellent and it makes exercising so much more pleasant. Some may not like the music, but that's easy to turn down. I thought it was fine, but I kept it low anyway because I didn't want to be distracted from the scenery.I was skeptical about how (or if) this was going to work, but thought I would give it a try anyway. Then when it started and I was going across the Golden Gate Bridge, which I enjoyed doing once a few years ago, I was so pleased. It was just as I had remembered it. The scenery was so interesting to me that I forgot that I was getting a great workout. I couldn't take my eyes of the road and surroundings.
I almost went over to open the window to let in some of that sea air, but stopped myself just in time. It's Winter and somewhere around the 30s here right now, so that wouldn't be a good idea. Next time I think I'll turn on the ceiling fans. :)
I had forgotten that this DVD included Big Sur, one of my most favorite places! I felt like I was there. Even though I'm exercising on my treadmill, not on my bike, this is just a great way to exercise. I kept wanting to stop off at that little restaurant where the gas costs 10 times more than anywhere else in the country but you have to stop there because there's no other place to buy gas, and later I wanted to just take off down that little side road where people stay in little cabins.
I can't wait until tomorrow when I get to visit the Wine Country of California. Then I'm off to Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. I had a wonderful vacation there and sure hope it includes some of the places I enjoyed.
I want ALL of these DVDs, but I'm going to enjoy the ones I have right now.
Am I pleased with my purchase? YES!!!
EDITED to say that I came back the next day to do this one again, on my treadmill. I bought half a dozen others, but I wanted more of Big Sur. As you can tell, I love it. Tomorrow I'm going to make myself do one of the others, even though I could happily do this one again. I rate it as a 10 out of 10.
