Anyone out there like to spin? It's my wife's birthday in two weeks, and I'm thinking of buying her a spin bike. One option is to get the Peloton, which costs about $2,000 PLUS $39 per month for a subscription to online classes. The other option is to buy a very good but boring bike that you do work-outs on by yourself. This is a much cheaper way to go, but I'm afraid she'll lose interest.

I might be mildly manic, but I'm not sure. Any one had any experience with Peloton or some other spin bike? I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks!

I have one down in the garage. I used to use it with my computer set up in front of it to watch vids while on it, but I have fallen away from using it. Part of it could be that with the good weather I simply switched over to my real bike. We'll see if I go back to the stationary now that it's rainy and cold again.

In short, I would talk with her about the idea to see if she's interested before making a purchase like that. You don't have to tell her you're thinking to buy her one.
