I was scheduled for 30 minutes of crosstraining lastnight (for my marathon training), so I rode my bike on the rollers for 30 minutes. I was sweating like anything. But it was fun. I was watching a Sandra Bollock movie. But I was thinking it might be cool to watch one of those DVDs where they show the scenery like you are really riding. Or maybe one of those DVDs like you are in a spin class (I have never actually been in a spin class).
Anyway, I remembered seeing some of these DVDs while I was looking for the move The Flying Scotsman. I went abck to Amazont to look. ONe that looked intriguing was titled Rides Volume 2 - Las Vegas Cycling Fitness. My dad lives out in the Las Vegas area during the winter months, and I can only imagine riding a bike over the hills (mountains?) from Vegas to Pahrump. Anyway, the video is a group ride in Fire State Park (not sure where that is). It got a couple great reviews. It could make my indoor training a little more interesting. So I ordered a copy. I am looking forward to trying it out. I will need to be careful that I don’t get too caught up and try to follow the turns on my rollers. I may need to use my wind trainer.
