I AM GOING TO A LIVE PELOTON CLASS TOMORROW!

[Anonymous]

Do tell more how you got in.

I got in by doing a few weeks of trial and error with when to join the queue on Thursday mornings. They open up classes 6 weeks in advance on Thursday mornings at noon and you have to join at the right time before they pause the line to have a good position.

I had a few devices where I would join the line, wait for it to tick to noon and see which device had the best shot. Very annoying!

Nice! I’ve been wanting to do that. Seems like it would be impossible for me to get a slot for my wife and I at the same time. Maybe we could get lucky and get a tread class (me) and a bike class for her.

Oh okay. I don’t love Cody that much.

Every thought that comes into your head does not need to come out your mouth or typed.

If you were able to both book classes on the same day to ensure it wouldn't be a total waste you could then closely monitor the wait lists week of. I (OP) am waitlisted on a second class that I think I have a decent shot at because I'm going to be there already. Most of the classes for tomorrow have had the wait list show up at least once in the last few days. So if you both 'get in the door' so to speak on the same day, you could then try to get into the same class.

Yes I'm a lunatic. I mean I'm going to be in NYC for the day so will do some shopping/eating and I live in another major east coast city so it isn't a long flight. I took the flight because I just didn't want to spent 10 hours in the car if I could avoid it and it saves me a hotel room for the night.

But I bought a peloton early pandemic and have been using it religiously for like three years. It's changed my life, I lost 50 pounds, so I'm just accepting that this is like my middle aged woman's version of a taylor swift concert or something haha.

That's awesome, I'm so happy for you OP.

Thanks for the tip! I could totally see us doing this in the middle of the week and me just rolling into our NYC office to work for that day. Amtrak at off times isn’t too bad anyhow.

PP just above. I’ve also hacked peloton a few times. I deleted classes to get shoutouts multiple times on the treadmill. I don’t do the class content anymore, but that was kind of a funny hack. All in good fun.

I love it. Enjoy!!!

So fun, OP. I would absolutely do something like this - enjoy!! I hope you have a fantastic time.

How was it op?

[Anonymous]

Yes, inquiring minds want to know

Sorry! I flew out at 6am and back at midnight and was a crazy level of exhausted.

It was great! I got into an Emma ride off the waitlist too! Both were wonderful, high energy! It struck me while I was there how totally surreal it must be to be any of them…spin instructors with people doing so crazy!

The studio itself was very nice, the production aspects of the class were pretty interesting. I’m now also a bit concerned my home bike isn’t calibrated properly because I was struggling a bit but that might have had to do with having been up some four and not eating anything too!

Cody really spent time talking to every single person before pictures. Emma was more withdrawn but I think she gets a lot of creepers there was one guy in class just like, STARING at her.

Also they don’t let you take pictures on your phone or bring your phone up. I guess people were constantly FaceTiming people in!

I did this in 2018 and did a new tracks ride with Ally and a hip hop ride with Alex. It was so much fun! So glad you had a good time OP - I would love to go again.
