    While visiting a sick friend the other day we saw on their TV a news story about a guy who went ballistic during spin class because he didn't like the other guy's enthusiastic yelling and grunting. He attacked the guy and gave him a good shiner.
    It wasn't my spin class.

    i think that was in NYC and at the gym a co-worker of mine belongs to. he wasn't there at the time though. another co-worker, i have heard, got yelled at in his spin class for being one of those enthusiastic yellers. i've had a class or two with a guy (why does it always seem to be guys?) who whooped and hollered and cheered and mostly, it just made me laugh. but i can see someone complaining about it. getting into a brawl, well that's another story. i thought exercise was a stress reliever? not for this guy i guess.

    I heard that one too.

    my club is down to just one spin instructor that I like. I thought I'd at least give another one a try but when she played Britney Spears latest debacle I got off the bike and was going to cut out. Then I thought no, I really want to take a spin class so I put my mp3 on and stayed in the class. I doubt anyone but the instructor knew it.

    Methinks Mimi means the fact that the instructor played Brittany's latest song was gross.

    hello Zen?
    I would see red if my spin teacher played a Britney Spears video.

    Maybe the attacker was on steroids? Some of those gym rats sure look like they are on them to me??
