The marketing blurb uses "tour" and "explore," but what you get is just a total of 28 minutes of content, an average of seven minutes per ride. What a rip!

I plan to avoid this publisher in the future.

I bought this video because it was less about "how to be an athlete" than a way to make cycling relaxing and pleasant. After I tried using the video, I discovered the music and scenery did take away the drudgery and help me keep cycling a lot longer than usual. This was a unique experience for me. I got the instruction I needed to get the most out of my workout but never felt pressured to perform beyond what I was comfortable with. Overall I would say that this exercise video really encourages you to combine body and spirit.

The scenery is beautiful, there is no intrusive narration, the camera work is hypnotic and there's no way to watch this video without going into an alpha state, unless you are hung up on arbitrary notions of time.

I love this tape. Highly recommended, whether you own an exercise bicycle or not.

If you want scenery tape is very good. If you want to ride a stationary bike and watch it, good luck. Video was recorded from a car. If you assume you are riding bicycle you would want to bail out as often you run out of road on the right when the vehicle gets too close to the guard rails or moves the camera for scenery only.
