Product Description:
 
With so many places to explore in America, where to start? With this DVD of course! It'll take you through the absolutely gorgeous city of Savannah, Georgia, then head out through bluegrass-inspiring highlands of North Carolina into Smoky Mountain National park for a fast-paced ride and then head on over to Nashville, Tennessee. Glide down the San Antonio River, by the Alamo then out into the wide open prairies of Oklahoma and New Mexico, finally rambling down the dusty streets of Tombstone, AZ, and through the Saguaro cactus forests near Tucson. Captured in December, the best time to ride through deserts. "Whew!"

5 out of 5 stars.  Another Great Cycling DVD To Keep Me Moving On My Treadmill!, February 26, 2010
Exercise has to be interesting and inviting to me or I won't do it.

This is working! I don't like exercising in public. Whether it's walking, running, or otherwise sweat-producing exercise, I want to do it from the comfort of my home gym, at any time of the day or night I feel like exercising.

I never really got 'excited' about doing time on the treadmill. I would scan to see if there were any good shows or movies on to get me through it, but it just wasn't working. I have 20 lbs. to lose. I needed to get consistent.

The first one I tried won me over. It was the California Coastline, which included Big Sur, my favorite place to be. I meant to try another Bike-O-Vision the next day, but I went back to this one. Love it!

The second one was the Washington D.C., Maryland area one, which had a patriotic feel to it and lots of upbeat music.

The third one, which I did last night, was this one, All Across America. Whoever chose the music did an awesome job! It keeps me moving and reminds me to change the pace once in a while. Some members of my family would NOT agree about the music, and for those who only prefer one kind of music and this isn't it, I say, bring your own music. Bring whatever sounds inspire you.

I hope they will go back to some of these states and show more of what they have to offer. For example, Oklahoma is not all Plains. It would be great if they chose to do the Talimena Scenic Drive across the Ouachita National Forest in Arkansas and Oklahoma, if they dared. It might not be safe, but I'll buy it if they do.

In fact, I'll probably buy most, if not all, of the Bike-O-Vision DVDs eventually. These really make a difference. My workouts are much more consistent, which makes it a healthy choice, very much worth the money for me.

3 out of 5 stars.  Not real exciting, May 1, 2009
Recorded in car looking straight ahead most of the time. For a "Casual" and "scenic" ride, you don't see much. They'll keep you occupied while riding your stationary bike, but you won't go "WOW" to the scenery. Could be better.

4 out of 5 stars.  Makes biking more enjoyable!, February 15, 2009
I found the Bike-o-vision DVD to be quite satisfactory even though it is obviously filmed from the dashboard of a car. The speed was about right, and I enjoyed it. My husband, on the other hand, felt that there wasn't enough looking around at scenery, and as he said, "Who wants to stare at a road for 45 minutes?" He also didn't like the music. (I did.) So, I'll continue to use it...my husband probably won't.

1 out of 5 stars.  Boring!, December 10, 2007
I bought this video and two other Bike-O-Vision DVDs for my husband because he gets bored easily on the stationery bike. His complaint was that the video is boring, very seldom does your view move from the road ahead to see other scenery. The city of Savannah, Georgia looks like any-where-USA. Just roads, buildings. So what? I watched this video this morning to get my take on it and I agree with my husband. Boring.

5 out of 5 stars.  They're GREAT and I've gotten them all., July 25, 2007
I'm an avid cyclist and I think these videos are a great idea. I've recommended them to all my cycling friends - best for indoor workouts when the weather is bad. I ended up getting all their dvds and use them regularly. They're good compliments to indoor workouts because the views you get are virtual "forward motion" that keeps you wanting to push ahead. There are many scenic rides in this compilation across the USA so I'll never get bored. You really see the diverseness of the landscapes. I also really appreciate the lack of distracting commentary (or riders on the screen) and unnecessary graphics found in other similar DVDs that I've bought. I'm looking forward to the next release.
