Only 20 minutes East of St Paul Minnesota lays 100 s of miles of smooth open roads, farmlands, and numerous quaint villages and towns along the St Croix River. Our ride today explores all of these. This is a wonderful ... more »ride filmed over 2 days. The first day was rainy and overcast. The ride was perfect! The shelter from the clouds and a light drizzle kept the world peaceful and romantic. The next day, it was sunny and warm. The colors popped out and the ride was alive with excitement! Both rides had its own mystique and personality, so, I combined them into one video. This 1hr 15minute workout is not just about the scenery though. I had a name picked out for it after only the first 30 minutes, Hillervals! Short little hills, one after another, endlessly approached. As soon as we got over the top of one, another would stare us down. Each hill was a sprint to the top which finally exhausted every muscle in our bodies. This workout provides a series of intense efforts followed by rest and recovery as we ride along the Minnesota Rollers. This is an incredibly unique way to train! The entire workout data is on screen at all times allowing you the ability to pace yourself and set goals. Audio mentoring is available on one of the three sound tracks. Once you have figured out how the heads up dash works and you feel comfortable turning the mentor off, slip on your own headphones, listen to your own music and follow the on screen workout and enjoy the views! Features of this DVD include: Three audio tracks # 1. Instructional Narrative # 2. Music # 3. Sounds of the road Heads up dash # 1. Target effort # 2. Resistance # 3. Cadence # 4.
