4 out of 5 stars.  Aloha Memories, August 22, 2010
I ordered this DVD when I purchased the Keiser spinning bike on forCycling.com. It is great watching the DVD when on the bike. I have been to Hawaii 4 times but the main island only once (20yrs ago). It was nice to see those shots again on the main island. The only thing I am not crazy about is the music. The first song was hawaiian which was great but then the other songs were not hawaiian and not so great but the beat was a good exercise tempo. I also ordered the California and Europeon DVD which I have not watched yet. I'm still enjoying my Hawaiian one.

1 out of 5 stars.  Not what I expected, May 5, 2010
The written description & the photo on front cover suggests the scenery will focus on ocean views but the main views include roads (complete with yellow lines!) with weeds and a few palm trees on both sides. It felt more like a car ride than a bike ride. Maybe 5 seconds of ocean views. I was so disappointed. Hawaii has so many BEAUTIFUL beaches they could have included. On a positive note, forCycling made the return extremely simple.

5 out of 5 stars.  Outstanding! A Beautiful DVD That Allows You To Enjoy The Big Island., March 7, 2010
I have almost all of the Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVDs. I haven't been to Hawaii's Big Islad in person, but after cycling it, I feel like I've been there. I found myself checking to see if there were any little local restaurants to stop in and get some lunch, just as I would have if I had been there on vacation. At one point I found myself looking for a place I might want to live. How far do I want to be from town? I have visited Kauai, which I believe may be the least commercialized of all the Hawaiian Islands and I can't wait for the Kauai DVD to come out. It doesn't really matter what comes out next. I'll probably buy it and enjoy it. These are great ways to stay fit! The time just zips by and my exercise is done for the day. Often I keep going. It's just that much fun. I look forward to my "vacation" time every day.

3 out of 5 stars.  Not what I expected, January 23, 2010
I have the So Utah bike o vision DVD and I love it! I was anxious to try Hawaii and I was disappointed. I found the DVD to be very dreary and boring. I think if they had made the video when the sun was shining it would have been a completely different video. It was overcast and rainy throughout most of the video. There were beautiful beach shots and inland shots but the video could not hold my interest due to the lack of sunshine. I would not recommend this video if you are like me and prefer the sun to keep you motivated.

5 out of 5 stars.  Taking a Bike Ride in Hawaii, January 21, 2010
Due to a knee injury, I am unable to go out walking like I used to. An exercise bike was given to me but I hated watching television shows or listening to just music when I used the bike. I ran across the Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVDs and I was hooked. I set my bike up close to the television and started the dvd. This is a bike ride seen from the rider's view. You go biking around the Big Island of Hawaii and I am completely lost in the ride. You find yourself gazing back and forth at the sights, watching out for cars...LOL, and just take a bike ride. I encourage people to use these tapes when using your stationary bikes. It is great!
