I am so excited about the new ones, especially the Bike ones to try on my new spin bike. I think I have all of the Hikes and Bikes and a few of the runs. I love each of them for different reasons. Whenever I try a new one, I think this is my new favorite, and that changes as soon as I try the next. I love to travel and hike, so I think that's why these are so appealing to me.

I only have one of the compass ones, and I like it (Angel's Landing). The guide points out some interesting things along the way and the scenery of course goes by at a walking pace. You could always play your own music if you'd rather not listen to him.

This is what VA customer service told me a few months ago:
Patagonia, Panama and Costa Rica around July
Hawaii around November and
France next summer

I'm not sure if this is still accurate. But hopefully it's close (as it's already July)

They said on Facebook the other day "very soon". Bikes will be first with the others to follow "within a month or two".

How do these work? Do you need to watch them on a cell phone? Anyone use them on their Kindle?

You can buy a dvd or they have downloads. You purchase the download which is a lot cheaper and I think you have 5 times to download. You can save them to your computer and view on computer or burn to a dvd r.

I pop them in my DVD player and put my bike real close to my big flat screen tv, I feel like I'm actually there. The bigger the screen the better.

Pat-would you like to borrow one to try out? I cannot use them for a few weeks because of my sprained ankle.

Which equipment would you use?

Thank you Sherry, that's okay - I went to the website and reviewed them - they look good but I don't have the right set up.
