1) In spin class, *YOU* control the intensity level, no one else. 2) You can have the same elevated heart rates during road cycling that you can in spin class. 3) In your opinion, how old is "too damned old" to risk an elevated heart rate?

Well, I'm too damn old now to risk getting my heart rate up the the level that spinning stuff requires. Plus, I can't handle loud noises, music, crowds, etc. and from what I've seen and heard (mostly on TV) they have the music jacked way up in those places.

    While I loathe indoor workout machines (rowing & cycling) I have
    friends who really enjoy spin classes.

    Some of them don’t ride bicycles out in the real world but they
    use these workouts to get and stay fit.

    They enjoy the social aspect of spin classes, some get wicked fit.

    Not a problem,

    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.
