Any of you noyds ever try one of these silly Peleton bikes yet? I got Mrs Snow one for Christmas like every other cake eating, soc family (hi @huskyhooligan ) has done during Covid.

I'm not really into the idea of taking a virtual spin class, but the scenic rides they have are pretty spectacular. I did a 30 min scenic ride through the country-side of France pretending I was a 6'6" Greg LeMond. And as I'm looking on the screen I see that 60 other Peleton dorks across the world are doing the same ride as me that day. I went ahead and crushed all other riders that day en route to 1st place and my first Peleton Yella Jersey. Suck it wimps.

    The Throbber is the KING of Peloton meditation.

    Ross Rayburn and Aditi Shah are my favorites.

    Get the app and a monthly subscription and whatever bike/treadmill you want/can afford. We allegedly have a NordicTrak treadmill.

    Did I tell you I am the KING of Peloton naps meditation?

    That’s some @DerekJohnson wheelhouse right there.
    For $12.99 per month she can lull you to sleep daily.

    That and it makes you a giant dick. I hate cyclists like @BennyBeaver riding 2 abreast on a Seattle arterial.

    I'll wait a couple years when the new fad or study has everyone ditching their peletons on craigslist, after sitting in the corner of their bedrooms holding coats and drying towels. Plus, I enjoy my time in the local gym sauna / steam room. I currently have memberships to every gym in a 50 mile radius with at least one of the two.

    I think you'll be in luck. It's grossly overpriced stationary bike. But if it gets the soc mommies to exercise it's a good thing.
    My neighbor's wife got one. Started out well but the Peloton updates have dwindled dramatically over the past few months. By next year my wife will probably tell me we can buy it from them for $500 if we want.
