It's been many years since I was last at a spin class, but they had a
very mixed programme including sprints at a very high RPM, "hill
climbing" with very high resistance, a lot of out-of-the-saddle work and
one-legged drills. It was a very intense workout, and many of the
skills transferred to the road, as did the enhanced level of aerobic
fitness.

Speaking of indoor cycling, has anyone ever run into one of these
people who go for these "spinning" classes? IOW, are they spinning at
outrageous RPM's with very low "gears" (resistance) so that when the
get out on the road on an actual bike, into stiff headwinds and
variable climatic conditions the bottom falls out of their
performance? Or are they over the top when they transfer to the
outdoors so they can knock your socks off? Just curious.

Let's change that. Let's call it, "Why ride?"
Patrick Moore, who Just Rode this afternoon despite wind and gray
skies, and turned a 8 mile rt PO trip into a hilly 17.6 mile Just
Ride fixed gear ride.
