Yep, I thought the same exact thing.
I had never heard of Peloton before this whole ad thing. They look really cool and if I wasn’t in college I’m sure I’d consider getting one. I want to guess that a lot of people are in the same boat I am.
Kinda funny, that exact ad pushed me to buy one, so each their own?

Was about to power through and hop on yesterday and then I got a splinter on the bottom of my foot from my hardwood floors. Can’t make this shit up.
world just does not want you to ride
I just haven’t made it on and i leave for a work trip on Sunday till the next friday. I will be on that following Sat though. I have to get back on it before the NY
Not totally on topic but adjacent . . .if you are (or were) more into cycling as opposed to spin, check out Zwift. I’ve been “Zwifting” for around four years, and I’m sort of embarrassed to admit that I hardly do outdoor rides any more. I have a Tacx Neo setup in my basement with my old road bike mounted in there year round. It’s just so convenient to not have to kit out entirely, worry about the weather, etc. Plus I’ve got a lot less free time now with a kid and heading out on weekend mornings at 6:00 a.m. for a 2-3 hour group ride (3-4 hours with the drive to and from the meetup spot) is not really happening.
Ok question for those who have tried both…is a Peloton really worth it? Meaning, the actual bike, not the classes/app - I already love those.
I have a road bike on a Wahoo Bluetooth smart trainer and I use it for Peloton app classes. It works, but can be a bit finicky with changing resistance, and a bit shaky when trying to stand up/climb. I know I can sell the wahoo trainer for a good amount ($700-900) towards the Peloton, just not sure if it’s actually worth it to get the bike. Or, perhaps I just get a cheap used spin bike and call it a day?
Any advice from those that might have used/tried both options?
i have one but haven’t used since i moved to california. Interesting enough since we moved here I don’t have the desire to use it as much.
But its great for keeping in shape though and will kick your butt when doing it. The hip hop and metal rides are the best

i rode it from 21 to 31 and sold. paid for my bike and 20 years of membership. still have some in my wifes account
Stock is up 3.5% today! Who would’ve thought.
Damn, I really really want to make this purchase. The GF has been kind of out on Peloton.
Should I pull the trigger and make her embrace Peloton life? This is usually how I roll with most things.

i absolutely loved dunking on the peloton ad…it was just too easy…as a guy who loves crossfit and also loves to dunk on crossfit i dont think ill ever stop the dunking. that being said, the actual workout and community part of it sounds great…but extreme props to those who are getting it and making the effort to stay accountable! self motivation i think is the hardest and having the refuge folks here to help is great. hell, may even look into getting a peloton for me and the wife now… also reminds me of my favorite most recent snl sketch… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoBBRXRTDQc

When I get home tonight I’m going to remeasure and make sure the bike dimensions can fit in the corner of my oceanside apartment (floor to ceiling windows not included), if it fits i’m going to pull the trigger.

Today Citron set a peloton stock price target of $5 by the end of 2020 which would be an 86% decrease from where it’s at now. Thoughts? I’m thinking I’m gonna keep it until they announce Christmas earnings on February 5th and then get rid of it.
Noticed a certain FedEx Cup Champ is riding with us via his ‘gram stories last night. Anyone obsessive enough to search the leaderboads on Alex’s 60 min rides to figure out his username?
