This is what I thought.  He's probably annoyed that you spent a crap-ton of money and, if you just do scenic rides, wasted it.  I would be.   [/quote]

OP, does DH or anyone else in the house use it? Who wanted it? If he did, then he should shut his mouth. If you wanted it, I agree that it’s a waste of money to use the Peleton on scenic rides (which aren’t that good anyway). You would get a much better workout (heartrate up, calories burned, etc) doing the rides. Start with short beginner rides and work up from there. [/quote]

Is there a life goal to use money as efficiently as possible?

Did someone ask you about the ways to get a better workout?[/quote]
This, precisely. I had an extraordinarily negative impression of the Peleton (and the sort of nut jobs attacking OP here, who I assumed were the core audience) until one of my friends told me that one of the scenic rides passes by her childhood home. I thought that would be amazing to see, even if it was a vicarious thrill. I love this thing! I’m thankful to not have a censorious partner. Lots of posters on here would horrify the Peleton instructors. [/quote]
