Another Great, Beautiful, & Difficult Ride
Just like the title says, this is another great, beautiful, and difficult ride done by Paul Gallas. I love his videos. I am now spoiled by the HD ones and and am getting more spoiled every time I buy one of his newer videos. I love the rear view look too that he has added and plays sometimes during the ride, although I can't focus on it too long because I start feeling dizzy. I love how challenging this ride is. It is very pretty and makes me feel like I am there. I also love the ride info that is provided at the bottom of the screen. It keeps me challenging myself and focused. I do wish that the white lettering was slightly larger since I cannot always see it very well and already have my trainer pretty close to the tv. On a side note, I have wondered how rpm's compare to cadence, since I have a cadence sensor but nothing to track rpm's like the ride info includes. In an ideal world (which the economy is far from these days), I would love to see some European virtual rides by Paul...
Absolutely Fabulous!
I stated indoor cycling about a year ago and I have discovered Paul's DVD about 10 months ago. Since then, I must have bought about 8 of Paul's DVDs. What I love about these DVDs is that they are very challenging; all of them are quite unique and offer very different training opportunities, in fact, I find those so motivating that I am having a hard time when I have to stop in the middle of a ride when I only have one hour before rushing to work.
I bought "Anarobic 4 Through the forest and over the hump" about 6 months ago. I did this ride for the first time this week. I knew that this was going to be quite a challenge; this is why I did the other rides before doing this one in order to build up a solid aerobic base. This DVD was quite an exciting ride and remains a great challenge, I still need more training before I will be able to perfectly follow the pace of this ride but I am slowly getting there! This is very motivating and rewarding.
I also love the music from this...

Another great video. There are no super steep climbs in this one, but there are plenty of rollers. And one big "hump." Its an hour and a half video with lots of great commentary from Paul and his guest David. Great insight into what it takes to be an all around cyclist. ALL of these videos are worth adding to your collection. They take you from inside a dingy room indoors and outside onto the road. You look up and the video is over. The cues and camera abilities just get better with each ride. Since I can't ride outside, why not bring the ride outside to me. Highly recommend!!
