Global Ride (www.globalride.net) is a new company manufacturing virtual cycling training DVDs for indoor cycling. Our first series, filmed in Hawaii, has received tremendous response from both indoor and outdoor cyclists as a superior means of indoor training. The DVDs feature a first-person riding perspective, great music and three selectable audio coaching tracks provided by an American, Italian and Australian cyclist. These selectable audio tracks allow people to choose a different track each time they ride, and with each coach providing their own interpretation of the DVD, it allows for a unique experience with each coach.

Our next series, due to release before the end of this year's offseason, was filmed in Italy. We are still hunting down someone to be our Italian cycling coach. The person can live anywhere as the audio can be recorded remotely - we can even send the equipment to record with. It is not a charity gig - you'd be paid - you wouldn't be able to retire from it, but it wouldn't be beans either. It wouldn't require a huge time investment either.

The only requirements are that you demonstrate an Italian accent and speak good English, and are an active cyclist or cycling coach. Check out our website to see more info about our DVDs and see examples of what you'd be getting into - there are even audio samples of the coaches on the first series. Please mail me -

- if you are qualified and interested.

Thanks.
