Spinning?

[Catrin]

I think some of this also depends on if you are clipped in or not. I have ridden with BMX pedals all year, outside of a few days in the spring. In a way I've no choice but to "mash" as I cannot efficiently use the entire pedal stroke. That being said, I get ever closer to spinning without being attached to the bike, but from what I understand it is necessary to clip in to get full benefit of spinning.

Of course I did just learn how to ride 8 months ago, so am still learning lots of things

The first time I saw that cruise ship ad where the mom had gone spinning--I thought she would be turning straw into gold or at least fleece into yarn.

So, really, not a stupid question, or at least not any stupider than me. At least you knew it was something to do with cycling.

This is such a friendly site - I guess it would feel okay to ask anything (to do with cycling).

I am a spinner ( hand spinner-) who also takes spin ( bicycle training alternative) classes and frequently spins ( pedals fast, low resistance) as as I ride on my road bike out on the road.

Anyway you look at it I am a spun spinner who spins and spins and spins.
