Went to the free trial class at SoulCycle. Experi
enced weird spastic pain in my feet. Could not keep up with the cardio pace but did 80% of strength exercises.

Won't purchase classes but might go back for one class a year from now if I do cardio and strength religiously for a year because it will then be an interesting test of my progress.

I much look forward to riding a stationary bike on my own, without loud music in a dark room.

But the vibe was interesting and some people were clearly regulars. One guy celebrated his 700th class. This probably means he has been going for a few years at least twice a week.
