This workout is tough — but that’s the point, right? I found it to be the perfect tool to help me with my training during days when I can’t get outside due to weather. Another reviewer mentioned the “getting lost” incident as a negative thing, but I feel that it adds to the reality of the entire program. It wasn’t edited for a reason — because this workout is the real deal. Great for those in training, or for those who simply want a solid home workout.

I bought this DVD with confidence, thinking that it would provide a quality workout and a nice reminder of the IM WI bike course. Yikes, was I wrong. The DVD follows four riders – two with helmet cams, and a car following – as they undertake one loop of the two loop course. Within 10 minutes of the ride, Troy announces that the group is lost and they need to turn around. Are you kidding me?! You couldn’t have edited that part out? Or start again? Very amateurish, and a huge distraction. The remainder of the dvd is pretty bland – Troy does provide some gearing advice, to help re-create the ride at home, but his commentary is otherwise uninspired. On the whole, I felt pretty ripped-off. Good idea, but poor execution.
