Review

Aloha cyclists and spinners to the black lava shores and humid jungles of this amazing Pacific island that is home to the Ironman Triathlon. Behold huge banyan trees and brilliant bougainvillea and hibiscus while riding through the famous coffee-producing area of Kona. Skim the lush southern coast under swaying coconut palms. See smoking Kilauea and beautiful, misty fern-tree forests as you work out through Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Scenic routes take us by waterfalls near Hilo and the grassy highlands of Waimea nicely round out this tropical adventure. 82 minutes in length --Rockstone Producer

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Ride in Hawaii, Best ever video!, April 4, 2009

This review is from: Bike-O-Vision Cycling DVD Journey #19 Hawaii's Big Island (DVD)

Length:: 1:28 Mins

Incredible cycling around Hawaii's Big Island. I love this ride because it's so different from the other Hawaiian Islands, less commercial-looking. This ride takes you cycling from the sunny, drier west side of the island to the lush, misty, rain-foresty east side of the island. You see amazing contrasts on this Pacific island. It's beauty is quite different from the other Hawaiian Islands with it's ever-active volcano with smoke plumes rising above the jungle and the black volcanic rock along the beaches and seashore. It's a quieter looking island and more rugged than the others with natural and remote beauty which is intriguing. It's a perfect place for cycling and is probably why the famous Ironman Triathalon events are held there yearly. There are different music cuts that make this ride fun. As an avid cyclist, I love having something interesting to watch while indoors in winter, so who wouldn't like cycling in Hawaii weekly? It's a high quality dvd at a good price and it compliments my indoor cycling perfectly.

3.0 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.

5.0 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!
