For some reason, I could never get the hang of the one forward one back hinges. It was also the first ride I had ever had with those.
thanks for linking this was a fascinating listen
I despise groove rides. No hate, I just feel like a real jackass doing them.
Part of it might be I once rode in studio with Emma and it was a groove ride and I was in the front row and I couldn’t necessarily sync up. She very nicely gave generic advice about how to do execute tap backs and I felt like it was directed at me.
Is my neurosis showing?
Also, she gave me a walk by fist bump after class and a “nice job,” so I got that going for me, which is nice.
On the contrary, that was some of the most fun I’ve ever had on a bike. Not sure why I’m so fond of groove rides, but I am. For whatever reason it works for me.
Couple items of business this week - first the new weekly ride. Shoutout @Rossy2644 for nominating Sam’s AC/DC Ride from 12/1/21. @ChickPhilA please update the thread when you can.
Also, we’re running low on ride nominations. Please jump in there if you have a few minutes and add a ride or two for the group. The ride selection process is very scientific. I use a random number generator to select the rides each week and then announce it on Mondays. There’s no requirements/limitations to the rides. It could be a ride you’ve taken and loved or one that looks enjoyable. I’ll add a few at some point today hopefully.
Link to the spreadsheet here.
Credit to @Rossy2644 (I can tell you love it by the 4 times you showed up on the refuge leaderboard!) for the ride nomination this week! This is still one of my top 5-10 classes I’ve ever taken. Also, thunder mountain is absolutely no joke. Lol
Ah thunder mountain! Looking forward to doing this one again. Good to get some Bon Scott
era AC/DC into the ride as well.
stop saying Thunderstruck!
stop saying Thunderstruck!
STOP SAYING THUNDERSTRUCK!!!
It felt like college, but not nearly as fun this time.
Putting this one on my to do for Monday!
Is anyone doing the upcoming PZP Challenge starting on August 29th? As much as the classes get monotonous and the music is hit or miss, I need some structure to get back into this thing.
I haven’t gotten on the bike since April, so I will definitely need to retake the FTP test, which is gonna suck. My zones would be way off otherwise. I am very curious to see how far my zones have dropped.
I am doing reddits Power Zone training schedule currently. Music doesn’t impact my motivation much, but the structure helps a ton so powerzone training schedules work for me.
Link please…?
I’m going to try it out. Done plenty of power zone but nothing with power zone pack
New ride for the week! Thanks @yungloudancolin for the nomination of Alex’s 30 Min Club Bangers from 10/23/21. @ChickPhilA please update the title when you’ve got a minute or two. Enjoy!
