Global Ride Releases Box Set of Hawaii Rides The original series is retired and the first of 3 new

box sets have been complet ed. Pittsburgh, PA, April 08, 2013 -- Global Ride Productions, has returned to its r oots to re-shoot and reproduce their most popular cycling video series; The Hawa ii Rides. This time however, instead of just 3 DVDs, there will be 3 box sets to tally at least 9 DVDs. Todays release of the Big Island Rides is the first with the Kauai Rides currently in the final stages of editing and enhancing. These ar e all one hour cycling training videos and are available on their globalride.net website as well as through Amazon for $24.95. Even though the standard box set price has been $74.95 since the company was fou nded, these DVDs have excluded the previous cross training section and have inst ead reduced the price to $59.95. In 2007 Global Ride Productions set out to tran sform the Spinning experience into a more cycling specific and realistic outdoor biking experience. This brand of virtual cycling videos targets health clubs, fi tness facilities, and independent indoor cycling studios, but is loved by cyclis ts riding at home as well. In the winter of 2006, Gene Nacey, founder of Global Ride Productions found hims elf spinning at a local health club to stay in shape for the upcoming mountain b ike race season. With the first class, Mr. Nacey felt something was missing in t hat room, and in his mind it was the beauty and challenge of riding outdoors. Th e vision for an indoor group class that could see what he sees when he rides out doors started to become more and more clear with every class he took. After improving his fitness over the winter through indoor cycling that year, it was clear that the experience and even the training could be enhanced by creati ng an environment that brought the outside in. That set him on the journey that today has come full circle, from the initial exploratory footage on Hawaii to th e current footage that was shot with 3 times the crew and cameras. While this seems like a logical business endeavor, what made it unique was his i ntent to create the virtual cycling experience in group cycling classes (often c alled Spin classes) in health clubs and independent studios. To introduce the con cept he took the show on the road after the first box set was completed in 2008. Now, 5 years later, they have tripled their production and have produced the f irst remake of rides that will captivate and challenge any bike rider or serious cyclist. What Im most proud of is that we have completed this project in just 3 and While we shot it last spring, we had to get out our Spain series before we ld even touch Hawaii, but we did it. I think our customers will be delighted h the different type of terrain and riding this new Big Island series has to er. Said Gene Nacey, founder of Global Rides DVDs months. cou wit off

The second box set is set on The Garden Isle; the island of Kauai. This is the sma llest of all the islands, and yet it offered the most challenging ride of all. I n addition, the feedback from the Spain series regarding our micing of our coach while he was riding on the road and being filmed was so good, we put a mic on bo th Coach Gino and Coach Tom to create a more dynamic give and take of instructio n and ride tips as they ride through paradise. The final DVD we completed in order to release the box set is Big Island, Big Oc ean View. This is meant to serve as a type of replacement for the Oceanside ride that became sold out in December of last year. That ride, while almost 100% fla t, was one of our most popular of all the single DVDs. Now riders will be able to purchase the upgraded Oceanside ride for less than the original at only $24.9
