Well Spin class is nothing to do with racing & it’s far away from proper road cycling. The sooner it goes under the better.The spelling police are more concerned about spelling than indoor racing

Just watched it. Her saddle looked a bit low.
Still ... There's only one thing in life worse than being talked about and that's not being talked about. So I guess the advert is working.

Immediately following the backlash on the advert, they lost 9% of their stock price, costing them $942,000,000 (nine hundred and forty two million dollars

Not good but will probably go up again. It hasn't cost them any cash, at least not yet.Immediately following the backlash on the advert, they lost 9% of their stock price, costing them $942,000,000 (nine hundred and forty two million dollars
The group of people who don't like the advert probably doesn't contain that high a percentage of potential customers. So the proof will be in the sales figures. I can't see why anyone would want one but quite a lot of people seem to.

Yes, but I think most of that was across the board sell-offs due to the Carrot- Top- In- Chief making negative remarks about the prospects for a trade deal with "Communist" China.Immediately following the backlash on the advert, they lost 9% of their stock price, costing them $942,000,000 (nine hundred and forty two million dollars

Nothing wrong with spin. It’s not road cycling, it’s not racing. It’s not really pretending to be either. Why would you want it to disappear?

I had that until I found a spin class run by a bloke same age as me (58), he plays decent music, and has fun. During the TDF he had a climbing day, when he set a video up of the alpe d'huez and had us climbing most of the class, and on the last day he gave everyone a plastic glass of drink to copy the riding down the champs elysee. Also done things like a class where every song has something to do with cycling
Lots of different ideas to stop it from being boring, it's not cycling but in horrible weather it's ok

I want it to disappear because it’s a rip off. Also they threatened to sue Shane Millar GP Lama for calling Some of his YouTube vlogs “The Peloton news”. The adverts are very annoying.

Peloton are now telling CNN and others how disappointed they are we haven't gotten the true point of their ad. That's what I wanted for Christmas, another company to talk down to me about how I don't understand their ad and it's objectionable message about wealth, conspicuous consumption, and gender bias.
