    DH is on board with my idea. Hopefully, he'll like the spin bike, too, as he doesn't care for the trainer either. We just need to start looking at what's on the market.

    This isn't the perfect solution, as I'd much prefer to go to a gym (I'm a pretty social person), but it beats hanging out on the couch.
    I would be interested in the trainer, let's talk!

    I am not a big fan of spinning in the gym or at home but certainly have friends that like it. I guess it would be a good solution for winter weather too if you like biking. Anyway, I would stop in at the local gym and ask the cycling class leader for some advice. I'm sure they would know a lot about them.
    I was in a bad accident and must wear a pulse oximeter. I cycle everyday and am in great shape. To me, life is about attitude.

    I'm actually pretty familiar with gym-quality spin bikes and spinning itself. The Y tested out several models a few years ago, and I tried a bunch. I have a strong preference for one brand in particular. I'm mostly concerned with getting one that works for me (I'm 5'4) and my 6'2 husband.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
