I don't believe there's a thread here yet, but I would be shocked if there aren't more than a handful of riders amongst us. So let's use this thread to spread the gospel of Peloton and welcome others into the cult family. I'll get it started…
Despite wanting to work on my fitness level I always had a hard time doing so. I hate going to a gym and can't stand mindlessly riding an elliptical even if the TV is on. I'm very social and competitive and those two things are what really drive me in everything I do (I don't practice my golf game as much because I don't like going solo in fact).
Enter Peloton
Not only am I social and competitive, but also very metric driven. Now with the Peloton I get everything I need to drive me to succeed. The community is amazing and being able to see others in the class and have that instructor there coaching you on, all my the comfort of my home, is HUGE! Add on the leaderboards and metric tracking of HR, Cadence, Resistance and Output and that covers the other key bases of my personality. It's amazing waking up in the morning and thinking "I can't wait to get on the bike". I've never felt that way before about exercising and it's exhilarating!
I've only had it for a few weeks, but I've ridden almost every single day and can't wait to carry on my journey. Each ride I can see little improvements and I've lost 11 pounds so far as well!
Now let me hear your stories, or questions, and I'll see you on the Leader Boards! #CycleLikeAChap
