Tia's Spin Class

Burned about 900 calories in Tia's 5:30 class. She's going to start leading the 8:05am class on Saturdays. Next week I plan to do her class followed by Rick's 9:15 class.

Piece of cake!

Goals for 2007 -- 50+ centuries

I'm shooting for "platinum" this year. That means riding 5,000+ miles (or 50 centuries or 25 doubles or...)

Stayed tuned!

New Years Day Spin Class

Class today was at noon for about an hour. Amy led a superb class. It's great to have a new instructor (and new music!)

Calories burned: about 700


Sure beats riding outside on frosty roads. I don't work well in the cold and not excited about riding on frosty roads. It's just too dangerous (the cars slip too).

Rick's Spin Class

We rode just an hour today in the 9:15 am spin class at the "Fatness Center".

Rick as brutal as usual, making us do high intensity intervals.

Burned well over 1000 calories! My watch didn't get a reading for the first 15 minutes until I reset it. Got over 900 calories for 45 minutes; so the total calories burned must have been much more.

Brian's Spin Class

Brian's noon-time spin class at the "Fatness Center" was a blast. We rode hard for 1.5 hours.

Calories burned: 1300

Spin Cycle

I was first on the waiting list for the Saturday morning spin class -- and sure enough they called that I got in.

I arrived a bit early and warmed up for about 15 minutes. Brian's class went over an hour -- excellent. He left when he started cramping. Soon it was just down to Steve and me. We finished together, getting in just over 2 hours.

My cycling shoes are still wet!

Calories burned: 2100

My animal totem for the Furnace Creek 508

Many thanks to Sandy for designing it!
