I am awaiting a Pearl Jam ride.

Really fun to take this ride again! This was the first non-beginner ride I took back in Feb, and I improved by 76 kj which I’m pretty happy with (I definitely didn’t have my best today either). Still need to mix in more Denis rides, seem to accidentally leave him out of my rotation a lot.

What an insane month. Glad to be back on The Refuge now that all is settling down. Hope everyone has been enjoying the rides! Excited to jump back in with the Foo Fighters.

I’ve done a 45 minute PJ ride with Jenn, it was ok. She isn’t an instructor I seek out but worth it if you’re a fan.

She had great rides with Billy Joel and the Grateful Dead, two artists I wouldn’t have thought would be ideal for exercising to, so this would probably be quite good. Bookmarking
On that note I did the Eric Church (who I do think is legitimately great) ride a couple months ago. A bunch of songs about drinking beer not surprisingly sucks to exercise to after work.

This weeks ride was great @EZmiss , and maybe the first real ride I’ve done with Dennis. I couldn’t help but chuckle a bit when he started rapping right along from the jump.
Aight Dennis, I see you.
I don’t know if I’m getting weaker, yesterday’s ride took it out of me, my form is deteriorating, maybe my diet/sleep habits have declined or what’s going on but I didn’t even get to 500kj and you guys kicked my ass on this one. I think I saw 57 people (some of them recorded more than once) on this weeks ride, which is the highest I can remember.
I’m not very good at the high cadence stuff, so this was good training for me. I was putting out the effort but not getting the output today!

Also noticed how many people have taken the ride from this group! Very cool!
Quick question about being able to see who all has taken the ride from the group. Is there a specific way to go in and join the refuge group on Peloton? This may be something that I have just missed or it may be an issue of being on the app and not having the actual bike. I know that I don’t get the kJ output numbers and stuff like that, so that could be it.
Just add #NLURefuge as one of your tags! Then when you are taking the ride you can filter based on that tag (actually, this might be a bike only feature).
Okay, thanks! It let me add it and is showing me who is working out now, so it seems to be working. I’m planning on taking the Outkast ride this afternoon, so I will see what it does during that.

Loved the Foos ride. (Wish some of the songs weren’t cut off at the ends tho)
And didn’t end up at the bottom like I usually do in refuge leaderboards🤣. @greebs was just ahead of me most of the ride but during everlong I overtook him lol!

How do you see the NLURefuge leaderboard specifically during a ride? I know there’s the overall board and the here now board but how do I see the group one? Did this one tonight and plan on doing the Outkast ride tomorrow and Foo on Sunday

While you are riding, the leaderboard let’s you filter by a lot of things and one is any of the tags you have on your own profile. Click that and the leaderboard will only show folks with the NLURefuge tag who took the ride

I caught it live and forgot to post the ensuing PB. Was fun riding live with some other refugees, including one dude who took off and left us other 2 in the dust. Was super fun!

I was the other guy left in the dust. Whoever that was basically doubled my output. Sheeeeeesh

Outlast ride was great. Enjoyed the rhythm and cadence challenges. Got that leg shake going post ride.

I also did the Foo ride yesterday. Disappointing output yet again but a good ride I’ll probably revisit when I don’t suck, and when it comes up for our weekly nomination.

Holy smokes, what a ride. I did the Foo ride and was chasing my PR the whole time and just barely got it beat. Really really enjoyed this one.

Hope everybody had a great weekend - time for a weekly update, this one courtesy of @yungloudancolin. Thanks for the nomination! This week is Tunde’s 30 Min 90’s Ride from 7/23/21. @ChickPhilA please update the title. Looks like lots of new rides were added to the nomination spreadsheet last week so thanks to everyone who added some!
