Make Winter Fun Again- Here’s How
Living up here in North Idaho is both good and bad. The good thing is that we have four very distinctive seasons which brings a variety of views and activities. The bad thing is that winter brings alot of indoor riding. Indoor riding, for me, isn’t extremely painful like it is for others because I love to sit in front of my T.V. and ride along to video of my favorite pro races from years past. For me, this type of exercise is alot of fun. This winter I ran into a small problem. I started getting bored with some of the videos from the past, and the most recent Tour de France was so ugly, that I don’t want to ever see it again. This is where CycleFilm comes into the picture……
If you don’t know about CycleFilm, they are a European outfit that puts together videos for cycling events. They have an extensive video library from events and pre-ride reconnaissance that is much more innovative than the other existing media outlets.
CycleFilm graciously sent me a copy of ”The Trilogy, Part 3.” This video follows Michael Cotty, a fantastic cyclist, over some of the most famous climbs in the Tour de France. Cotty’s reconride of these famous climbs is inspiring and tons of fun to watch. It gets your blood pumping. Best yet, it has made my trainer rides fun all over again. This video makes winter fun. The Trilogy is a must have in any cyclist’s video library.
Check out the preview of the Trilogy below, and then check out the website for other cool video.
