WTB: Training (scenery?) DVDs

I am in the process of reviewing a promising set of downloads/DVDs from Ride Fit for www.crossbikereview.com.

I wish I had these videos during the summer while I was recovering from injuries, though I have to say the mountain biking during Olympics were not too bad to watch!

The Ride Fit videos are designed around different types of training rides and/or ability and offer narrated target effort zones and ride profiles. Turn off the volume if you want to do your own thing!

An "easy" ride may be great for an active recovery day or someone starting out in their fitness. More difficult rides are available and run around an hour. Stack an easy ride at the beginning for a longer ride.

There are different versions, one set of videos taking place in Spain and one in California, with more titles coming. The prices are reasonable, especially for the combo packs.

Check out http://cyclingtorrents.nl/

there is enough on there to keep you occupied for literally a year of sitting in the garage. All free & legal. If you specifically want roads to watch, search for Real Life Video or RLV's.

You'll need to be bittorrent savvy.

A new baby has me, basically, "off the road" -- which means I'm often found on the trainer, in the garage, staring at the wall (with our someday pro CX and MTB racer, "OMG," in the swing nearby, sleeping).

During Computrainer sessions we sometimes trained while watching DVDs of different road rides -- e.g., the Ironman Canada course outside of Penticton or the Ironman route around Cour D'Alene). Anybody have some of these DVDs they'd be willing to sell? 

Alternatively, anyone care to recommend DVDs (or video files for download) and point me to where I can buy them? 

Many thanks,
Will.
