Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Although I've just purchased these videos, I love them already! I actually look forward to my indoor rides for the first time ever. They are unlike the typical spin class videos I've used, which is exactly what I was hoping when I purchased these. This ride has a nice mix of California terrain, including some steep climbs. I prefer the option of hearing the narrative which has some training and endurance tips (narrative and music can be turned off). I also started using a heart rate monitor, which allows me to really push my limits, especially when climbing. The on-screen data is nicely done, although I find myself almost exclusively watching the heart rate, cadence and spin resistance fields. Soon I'll be adding a cadence sensor to my spin bike as I'd like to increase my average rpm a bit. Having both a heart rate and cadence monitor will help me get the most out of these rides.
I had some questions and contacted the video's creator Paul Gallas. Paul was quick to respond and very willing to answer numerous questions, which I sincerely appreciate.
I'm not a racer, just an average guy that enjoys cycling to help stay in shape (both physically and mentally). I expect these videos to keep me from getting bored with indoor training and I'm confident they'll help make me a stronger cyclist. I look forward to purchasing several more of these videos in the future. I recommend them to anyone...whether you're a racer or a recreational rider fighting the boredom of indoor riding. Be sure to check out the demo clips available on their website too.
