Product Description:
 
Now here we have the original cycling video that started the "Bike-O-Vision" craze! The camera work is a bit bumpy over some of the cobblestones and ageless country roads, but it's a fascinating collection of journeys you won't want to miss. You'll see Alpine meadows in Austria, a cute Alsacian (French) village, racing a barge up the Rhine River near the famous Loreley in Germany, along the Italian Riviera paradise of Portofino, through the Brecon Beacons of Wales, and into English Cotswold Hills region. All videographed in glorious Springtime. The rides are generally shorter in each section and the DVD is only 35 minutes in length.

1 out of 5 stars.  Ride is too short for use in Cycling, May 17, 2010
I enjoyed the other Bike-O-Vision projects very much but this presentation is so short, under twenty minutes. It was not very appropriate for indoor cycling training.

5 out of 5 stars.  An Adventure Every Time You Work Out! Especially Great For People Who Can't Ride or Walk Today Due To Weather, Etc., March 7, 2010
I have most of the Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVDs and have been doing them now for a couple of weeks, with effective results. The "saddle-bags" are disappearing and it has been fun making it happen.

It's much easier to be consistent when you enjoy both the challenge and the scenery. You can take your exercise to whatever level you want with these. Those of us who are not experts in cycling don't have to worry. We don't get left behind in the dust and we get just as much exercise value as those with lots of experience and expertise. Nobody is judging us on our form or speed.

The European Sampler appears to have been their first DVD. It's a few minutes shorter than the others I've been doing, maybe by about 10 minutes. Regardless, it is PACKED with beautiful and challenging areas to explore. I think of it as an adventure. Every day I look forward to going somewhere new, or, sometimes, a place I have been and enjoy riding through on my virtual bike, seeing it from a different viewpoint.

These cycling DVDs are the best exercise discovery I've made for a very long time. I wish I had discovered them earlier.

4 out of 5 stars.  I liked it!, January 12, 2010
I like using this when I train on indoors on my bike. It breaks up the same old news or Ipod music.

4 out of 5 stars.  Pretty Good..., February 4, 2009
I really enjoyed the Bike-O-Vision. It is exactly what I expected. In terms of quality, the product is solid. The music is nice, but I put in my earphones and crank out an hour or so. The value is not great - the clips are very short - I thought I might get about 2 hours of footage from this product. I have St. Croix and I'm planning on buying more of these - they will keep me busy on the bike through these long winters.

I'd like to see a company do the same thing with CGI and sell them for significantly less (= more value).

5 out of 5 stars.  Great way to see Europe, January 22, 2009
This is a great way to tour different parts of Europe and have fun indoor cycling at the same time. All of the Bike-O-Vision DVDs are fantastic journeys and I am particulary fond of the Zion Nat Park & So. Utah, Nevada, Sedona, California Wine Country, and Puerto Rico adventures. I like to alternate these with the Spinerval (Troy Jacobson) DVDs, especially the Cycling with Iron Girl.
