NLU Peloton Thread - Weekly Ride: 30 minute 2010’s Hip Hop Ride with Ally from 7/25/24

objective of reaching 700 for 45min met. whoever goNADgo is gave me a helluva run, and if I didn’t have the NLU leaderboard up no way I would have finished ahead.

@RonSwanson was WAY out in front by like 70watts. sheesh :hot_face:

Late night weekly ride update here - thanks @UncleTone for the nomination this week! Our ride is Kendall’s 30 Min 2000s Ride from 1/21/21. The playlist is a serious high school flashback for me. Should be a good one!

That expression Kendall has in that photo is … quite a look

Kendall is the personification of the one night every semester in college my roommate and I would go out on stop day before finals and start the night with a shot of Bacardi 151.

I don’t advise doing it often, but buckle up when you do.

also - I can no longer drink rum.

I’m 9 rides in and already have a Peloton crush on Emma, so that’s where things are in my life these days.

Took an 11 day break between bike rides, which I think is the longest I’ve gone between rides in the 2+ years we’ve had the bike. I played a lot of golf last week and just needed a bike break, so I tried a bunch of strength classes instead.

Was good to get back to it this morning with a good old fashioned Kendal ass kicking.

550 output that isn’t even a PR. :muscle:

She has many faces. Most of which confuse me.

Took a Maya ride yesterday for the music and rode at 75% because of upcoming golf (member/guest with dad this weekend, Hootenanny, and CLC match play all upcoming over next two weeks, followed by two CGA tourneys in July and golf trip to KY). I totally enjoyed it: White Stripes + her yelling in German + subtitles to understand she’s not mad = good sweat.

Related: I’m keeping up with regular workouts better this summer while golfing…backing rides down from 45/60 cycle to 30/45 cycle with kits of core/strength in 10/15m busts.

I took Denis’ White Stripes ride but this looks fun too - as long as the metrics show up on the bike, and there are subtitles I guess the fact that I don’t know German (and people yelling it always sounds scary to me) won’t be an issue!

Far weaker than most of you, but first time breaking 300 on 30 mins

PR’s are always worth a share. Keep after it!

Peloton just posted this and I feel like it’s worth sharing in this thread (cough):

Replace “I ranked so high” with “I just PR’d again” and you’ve got me. I just can’t help myself.

PR crew! Something about “The Only Difference Between Martyrdom and Suicide is Press Coverage” is a shot in the arm at the beginning of a ride for me and then just kept that same energy for the rest of the ride. Almost cramped up and lost it at one point though :rofl:

Been awhile since I’ve taken one of these rides but decided to dive in today. Did not know Kendall went to USC, but also not shocked. She definitely did not study music theory there, saying during this ride that emo post-punk introduced electronic music to rock and started EDM. Kendall…just don’t. Yikes.

Ride was pretty fun and I was on my way to break 300 and then suddenly was very much not. Whatever, it’s Friday.

33 #NLURefuge riders this week! I found this thread about a year ago, and that’s the most I can remember for this board’s weekly ride. Let’s get to 40!

Hey folks I’m gonna blame the overdue update on the PNW heat wave. It’s not great here to say the least. Thanks to @yungloudancolin for the nomination this week. We’ve got Leanne’s 20 Min Punk Rock Ride from 6/24/19 or maybe 6/25/19 depending on your time zone this week. Enjoy and stay cool!

Oddly I just added a 20 minute Leanne Punk ride to my stack. It’s about as punk as Peloton is going to go. The one I added is recent and a bit more my style but this one looks good too. Nice to mix a short class in.
