On this adventure you’ll cycle down long corridors of magnificent wonders of the world, the Giant Redwoods! Now found almost exclusively in the coastal mountain ranges of northern California, these towering giants used to cover much of the northern hemisphere so you will be seeing the world as it looked over five million years ago. Did you know some specimens can grow to over 350 feet tall, 35 feet diameter and live as long as 2000 years? The oldest having witnessed over 50 human generations, its no wonder John Steinbeck once called them: ‘…ambassadors from another time’. Thoroughly explore the world famous Avenue of the Giants, pristine lengths of the Navarro River in Mendocino County, The Smith River in Del Norte County and discover ‘The Lost Coast’ in Humboldt County just as the morning fog lifts to reveal its dramatic, windswept ocean scenery. 112 minutes

Just like Italy!
This video will inspire you to just keep pumping the pedals without even noticing youâre doing it because the scenery is just that great. It âfeelsâ so much like old Italy- and I say âfeelsâ because its like youâre really there as you keep riding, really getting into âthe zoneâ. I also like the coastal views, hilltop towns, and the interesting background music. Perfect.

Scenic Workouts
I love these virtual bike rides. Czech Republic is no different. Varied instrumental music including classical. Varied views front mostly- got to watch where youâre going, side Views and stops to look at landmarks and vistas. Pastoral countrysides, pedal through Prague (Praha) the city of a thousand spires. Much fun. Where am I biking tomorrow?!

What I Wanted
This is pretty much exactly what I wanted; a long leisurely ride through a scenic area. The pace feels about right on my bicycle. I like the fact that traffic is sparse to non-existent. It’s just you and your bike out there.I can’t comment on the music, except to say that I immediately put on my own tunes.A minor complaint: I wish the camera was mounted on a swivel, so there could be a more natural side to side sweep of the view, instead of breaking the flow with side views suddenly edited in. The camera is obviously mounted inside a car (occasionally there is a line of glare from a windshield) so I understand why they can’t sweep the camera. Still, maybe the camera could be mounted on the roof, or the hood?

So far this is my favorite.. Of the six I own. Love the idea of riding my bike around beautiful blue sky vineyards.. And cozy towns!!!

Great hill climb
Many of the videos are of flat roads that are not very challenging and less interesting. This is a hill climb which works you hard for most of the ride. The scenery is great too.

DVD-R .. not a proper DVD!
Unfortunately, this is a DVD-R and not a proper DVD (like they used to sell). Amazon sellers normally do specify when a disk is a ‘DVD-R’, but in this case there is no mention in the description. Also, the film is very overexposed which makes it quite difficult to really appreciate the beauty of these areas. Would not recommend this one.
